I can't remember who recommended this tea, but I thank you from the bottom of my heart ????. Oh happy day!!

I was shopping for items I would need post-op and picked some up with my other items. I so thankful for people posting what has been helpful for them.

The Smooth Move tea definitely works. Too bad they all taste like licorice. My favorite however was the chocolate. I put it in hot chocolate to help disguise the flavor.

I had the camomile flavor and I barely tasted any licorice.

Does smooth move tea help like a stool softener would? Going #2 has been painful of late and I hate taking stool softener.

I've been backed up while on my pre-op liquid diet. I tried a softener and magnesium tablets (my usual help) with no response, then the Smooth Move tea 2 nights in a row with no help either. Finally had to resort to magnesium citrate. Now I'm having the SM daily to try and prevent it again.

@@Margie122 it is a natural laxative. It definitely loosens up everything. I will probably drink it a few nights a week for preventative measures. I'm 2.5 weeks post op and #2 has been a struggle for me as well.

Elode was who recommended smooth move for me!!! I drink it just once a week, and I am moving along!!! Love it!!! I also love it without any sort of sweetner too!! Just sayin'!!

I'm going to give it a go (bad pun intended!) Thanks!
