Congratulations, you’ve found the only store that is 100% dedicated to digestive issues and symptoms.
Whether you have occasional problems like reflux, bloating, heartburn, diarrhea, or constipation, or you have a fully diagnosed disease such as Crohn’s, colitis, diverticulitis, IBD, or IBS, you will find more answers here than you ever thought possible.
You’ll see why, even if you eat healthy, understand nutrition, take antacids or visit your doctor, you are not satisfied with the answers, results and options. We have over 100,000 people that would say: “you’ve just found the answer."
My name is Rachel Hohlweg. My father and I have dedicated over 35 years of our lives (we were both sufferers) to researching, collecting treatment vs. benefit data, and developing our own methodology for digestive issues.
Our extensive research has led us to this one undeniable conclusion (our researched opinion): Overproduction of stomach acid, produced during digestion and times of stress, is the root cause of almost all digestive issues and symptoms. Too broad you say? Believe me, we get specific and results oriented.
Here is where things get interesting. There are literally two forms of digestion; one is healthy and non-damaging, the other uses hydrochloric acid. We have all “forgotten” that enzyme digestion is good and acid digestion (when it becomes our body’s primary method) is potentially harmful. Enzymes are designed to gently digest food and extract its total nutrition. The opposite of enzyme digestion, is: acid digestion. Occasional acid is ok but continual acid can be harmful to many internal systems and delicate digestive and throat tissues.
You may ask: why doesn’t my body simply use enzymes instead of allowing stomach acid to damage my health? Here’s our researched based theory: Digestive enzymes are not compatible with complicated meals (meals containing specific foods we call catalyst foods). Yes, you need a broad nutritional base… Carbs, proteins, fats, oils, vegetables etc.… but we can modify our meals and/or use supplements to “encourage” enzyme digestion over acid. It is not as hard as it sounds, once you know how.
Unintentionally, you are probably forcing your body to use acid digestion and thereby flooding your entire digestive tract with acid with every meal and snack. We believe this corrodes and deteriorates the delicate valves, protective mucosal linings, and in severe cases, intestinal walls and tissues that weren’t designed for this much acid exposure. Over time we believe this leads to symptoms like bloating, gas, heartburn, acid reflux, diarrhea, constipation, indigestion, and for some, diverticulitis, diverticulosis, colitis/UC, and Crohn’s.
Here at Rachel’s Tea we take your symptoms very seriously, it’s been our life’s work to show you the tools to deal with these embarrassing and sometimes painful moments. You have nothing to lose and everything to gain. Imagine going on vacation, out do dinners, and cooking meals with no fear or worry ever again. You will be in charge of how you eat, feel, and live.
To get the benefits of enzyme digestion (we don’t recommend enzyme supplements) and to make this “doable” for everyone, we give you multiple options. You will not have to eat foods you don’t like or aren’t used to. You will be able to eat most foods you already love. We want to work around YOU, and what you are willing to do to succeed. There are two main options or a combination of the two depending on what appeals to you most:
1. Follow the Rachel’s Tea Catalyst Food method. It’s available in either hard copy or digital download. On a tight budget? Great, it’s free in digital format at the bottom of this webpage.
- No charge for digital version, instant access.
- Includes the seven catalyst foods you should never eat, called “trigger foods.”
- Includes your new eat out guide (teaches you how to eat anywhere).
- Includes emergency attack/flare-up instructions.
2. Not into following programs or meal plans? We’ve got you covered!
Use the DIY recipe for Rachels Digestive Relief Tea.Great tasting, and our clients love it. Some say “Its all I need.”
- Check out other natural options above on this page.
- You don’t even have to purchase from us! Although we have some items made according to our exact specifications, several can be found elsewhere. We don’t mind at all!
- Our most important item is Rachel’s Digestive Relief Tea and we give you the recipe free. Make it yourself if you like, just make it EXACTLY as we suggest.
- The tea and other suggestions are all on this page (above), and if you choose to get them here, we appreciate it!
- Several other items are available as well. We only offer items that address specific digestive issue symptoms, and those that we feel are uniquely effective (after 35 years in the field, we have learned that most items, regardless of cost or claims… are, unfortunately, not).
3. The favorite option: Mix and match. Download the free book and learn the catalyst food method. Use it when possible but keep other “weapons” (supplement options) in your arsenal. Life is hectic and busy. We can’t always plan every meal, or carry what we need. Knowing what to do in any situation provides the control and relief you’ve been searching for with or without following a regimen.

Let customers speak for us
This tea has a great taste. It serves as a calming beverage in the late afternoon and seems to reduce my hunger.
I have been using Rachel's Tea for almost a year. I was trying to find something to help with my diverticulitis. It has been so helpful. I drink it first thing in the morning and another cup before bed. It has helped significantly, along with shots of aloe vera juice. I also got their helpful book on food and if I am having a flare I follow the eating protocol and it has helped me avoid a full-blown attack and allowed me to eat out with little issue. This is particularly helpful when you want to spend time with friends and family during the holidays. I am very grateful that I have found such a terrific product.
The webinars in the Toolbox have been incredibly helpful for me in navigating through the process of improving my gut health. The advice is very insightful with tips to make the process easier to understand, and since it can seem overwhelming in the beginning, it was invaluable for me to be able to replay each video training as needed. Sonia is very knowledgeable and helped me make sense of what I was doing, the plan I was following, the supplements, how to make smart choices food wise, as well as suggesting ways to adjust and fine tune the program to my own specific issues. Also love the cooking videos and holiday suggestions from Rachel. The Toolbox is an incredible resource and well worth the cost.
I have had GERD (Gastriol intestinal reflux disease) for the last 20 years. I have taken omeprazole for 15 and Famotidine the last 5. As well as eating antacids at least once a day. Absolutely none of those things give any relief. Antacids would give a little relief but that was all. As of recently I was loosing sleep, I would sleep until 6am and then not be able to go back to sleep. What was weird is that I did not have any symptoms but could take antacids & maybe go back to sleep. I was starting to have insomnia, because of it. About a week ago I stumbled upon Ms. Rachel's tea, and I thought, we'll it's worth a try. Considering nothing I have tried has worked, I just recently found out that you can have corrective surgery for GERD but I do not want to go through with it, at this time. I received my tea two days ago and the first night I had one cup and slept a little better. Yesterday I had the morning and evening cup, I also received the email telling me I could use my tea bag twice, I was thrilled. Last night I slept AMAZINGLY! This tea is an absolute life saver and I am ecstatic that it has absolutely taken away the bloating, heartburn, indigestion! The only thing I do have is gas, I believe with my next order (will be subscription this time) I will order the slippery elm. Thank you Rachel's tea for helping me heal my GERD! I will always be ordering (subscribing from now on) and telling everyone I know about this wonderful company!
I recently ordered a sample package of the digestive tea and I must say, as far as I can tell, it works great! Have not had any issues with my stomach since I have been drinking it. Thank you for creating such a great tea!
I have been using Slippery Elm 400 mg twice a day for last 2 months. I have remarkable improvement in my IBS symptoms. Is it safe to use long term? Do I need to cycle ? Please advice . Thanks
This really does do what it says on the tin. I took this during a flare up to help with inflammation, but found it also helped with my mood. (I was going through a very stressful time that I suspect led to the flare up). Definitely recommend this product
I have not had to take antibiotics for a flare up of diverticulitis in over six years. At first hint of pain, I mix up the tea and drink it, usually starting with two cups full, then as needed. My body lets me know when the inflammation is subsiding. I drink it hot or cold.
I have shared these with friends and now they are customers also. Thank you
Slippery Elm has been a lifesaver for me! I believe that my taking it "first thing" in the morning prior to breakfast, and before meals which might cause digestive stress has helped me to better navigate my issues. Thank you!
The Digestive Tea saves me whenever a hint of "that feeling" comes along. It's the first thing I list when telling others about your site. Thank you so much for sharing this recipe and making such a wonderful product.
It works. I had my sigmoid colon removed 3 years ago. Its kept everything under control. I drink the tea after a heavy or rich meal that I didn't think was so bad to eat. I will also take the tea and take slippery elm before bed for GERD. Rachel's tea and products aren't "the cure" for a diverticulosis intestine -- they are power medicinal remedies to comfort you and assist you as you make lifestyle changes. It's legit medicine.
I read the reviews and said to myself it’s time you stop wasting money and time. I read the review and said let’s try this tea. I added honey and waited till it cooled off and this tea is the actually good to drink and a bonus good for our health. Thank all the people at Rachelstea because you may me n my body happy to kick constipation out of our lives.
Just started digestive tea, like it so far and trusting it will help. Ordered the prebiotic and will be starting that also. Thankyou for your help. Oh, and I was a liver of Greek yogurt, I took your advice and started So delicious coconut milk yogurt. Love it. Thankyou
I have suffered from stomach issues IBS lactose intolerance (diarrhea /constipation /bloating/severe foul gas /painful tender belly) on and off over the last 3 years, it has gotten more consistent & persistently worse these last 3/4 months.. I have tried otc remedies, prescription, herbal teas, digestive enzymes of every organic brand..
No help. No exaggeration or BS this helped me within 3 days of driving it 2x a day. First thing in the morning and before bedtime, I don't enjoy the taste not with honey either.. So I let it cool off just a bit and drink it a couple of gulps followers by room temperature water!!! This is AHHHMAZING!!!!! I truly have recommend it to everyone. It really works my bloating my smelly gas is almost non existent.. It was a huge struggle for me... THANK YOU this tea concoction is the MVP!
Rachel’s tea is a great resource! I have been using their products and consulting with Sonia by phone several times regarding my diverticulitis. She was so patient and helpful as I prepared for the Thanksgiving holiday and a cruise as well. With her suggestions and using slippery elm, peppermint gels and the Pro Tumeric and Grapefruit seed extract I was able to avoid any flare ups. I highly recommend both their products and their advice!
