Peppermint tea
So I researched and read up peppermint seems to do the same as spearmint tea except it doesn't raise estrogen(something I don't need since it can cause excess fat stores). Is anyone else drinking it? If so, is it making you sluggish like sleepy?

I'm not sure what you mean, but I drink peppermint tea for acid indigestion, and it actually works pretty well.

I mean, does it make you drowsy or sleepy? I'm wondering if it is the tea or my hormones are just changing.

I don't care for it. I prefer other teas.
It comes up from time to time here...
Spearmint Tea?
I think that was the most recent.
HTH!

Nods, I heard about the spearmint tea..what I am wondering about is peppermint tea specifically. Does it make other people drowsy? or is it just me?

I think it's just you!
I used to drink it all the time and it's supposed to be good for digestion. It never made me sleepy.

Alright thats what I wanted to know, thanks ya'll! It hasn't made me drowsy lately.. Maybe it was TOM when I started drinking it (I have cycles hormonal cycles just don't ovulate or bleed) *shrugs* it doesn't make me drowsy now so cool.
