Smooth Move vs Poopy Time Tea: The Gentler, Better-Tasting Pick
If you've Googled "tea for bloating," you've probably seen Smooth Move Tea from Traditional Medicinals. It's been around forever, so a lot of people have run into it. We made Poopy Time because we wanted a tea that felt better — gentler ingredients, smoother taste, and an experience you'd actually choose instead of one you'd just tolerate.
The short answer
Poopy Time is the gentler, better-tasting alternative to Smooth Move. Same kind of digestive support, without the harsh taste or the brace-yourself feeling.
What's in Smooth Move Tea
Smooth Move leans heavily on senna leaf as its main active ingredient, paired with a few supporting herbs like fennel and licorice. Its formula is built around senna doing the heavy lifting, which is what gives the tea its strong, bitter, medicinal taste.
What's in Poopy Time Tea
Our blend uses a wider mix of gentle herbs — chosen so no single ingredient is doing all the work on its own. The result: digestive support that's smoother on your system, plus a flavor most people actually enjoy drinking.

Both teas support digestion. The difference is the experience. Smooth Move can hit hard — that's how it's built. Poopy Time was made to feel different: easier, smoother, less of a "brace yourself" moment. For people who find Smooth Move too intense, that's the entire point.
Taste — drinkable vs. medicinal
This is where most people decide. Smooth Move tastes strong, bitter, and unmistakably medicinal — a lot of people don't love it. Poopy Time was made to actually taste good. It leans smoother and slightly sweet, and pairs well with a splash of honey or lemon if you want.
