On occasion, some of the bile backs up into the stomach, where it comes to rest, causing some irritation. This can especially happen during a healing reaction or "flare up" when a lack of appetite, nausea and sometimes vomiting can be experienced. Should this happen, drink copious amounts of peppermint tea every 15-20 minutes to flush the bile out of the stomach and gruel should be used in all juices, which will help sooth the lining of the intestinal tract. (not sure what they mean by gruel...maybe fiber?"
