Is Trader Joe's Chai Tea Mints GERD Friendly?

Description
Small, hard mints combine warm spiced tea notes with cooling mint; the smooth, glossy disks dissolve slowly, releasing layered flavor. Commonly used as an after‑meal breath freshener, palate cleanser, or travel treat, reviewers note a distinct chai-like aroma, pleasantly balanced sweet‑spice and mint contrast, with occasional remarks about sweetness levels.
Why it's not GERD friendly
- peppermint oil
- black tea
peppermint oil
Dietitian noteMint, particularly peppermint, has a muscle-relaxing effect. This can relax the LES, a muscle that acts as a barrier between the esophagus and the stomach. When the LES is relaxed, stomach acid can more easily flow back up into the esophagus, triggering heartburn and other GERD symptoms
