If you’ve ever wished for a soothing remedy for tummy troubles that’s natural, healthy, and kid-friendly, these DIY digestive gummies are a game changer! Packed with the goodness of fennel, catnip, and ginger root, these grass-fed gelatin gummies are a refined sugar-free way to support digestion.
Whether it’s for you or your little ones, these tummy-soothing treats are a healthy homemade option to keep on hand.
Supplies and Ingredients for Making Your Own Digestive Gummies
To make these tummy relief gummies, you’ll need just a few ingredients and tools.
Some of the ingredients, like catnip, might surprise you! While catnip is famous for making cats playful, it’s actually safe for humans and has calming properties. Catnip is a type of mint and helps soothe digestion and relax the body, making it a perfect addition to these gummies.
Fennel seeds are widely used for easing bloating and gas, while ginger root is a tried-and-true remedy for nausea and digestive discomfort. Together, these ingredients create a powerful tea base for our recipe.
The grass-fed beef gelatin is key to these gummies’ texture and gut-healing benefits. Gelatin supports gut health, hormone balance, and overall digestion, making it an excellent addition to your natural health toolkit.
You’ll also need honey for natural sweetness, but you can substitute it with monk fruit or maple syrup if you prefer.
Lastly, a silicone mold—such as a gummy bear mold—is essential for shaping these gelatin gummies into fun and manageable portions.

How to Make Your Own Homemade Digestive Gummies for Tummy Trouble
Soothe upset tummies with these healthy, homemade digestive gummies made with fennel, ginger, and catnip.
Kid-friendly, gut-healing, and refined sugar-free - they’re a natural way to keep your family feeling great!
Materials
- ¼ cup fennel seeds
- ¼ cup catnip
- ¼ cup ginger root
- 1 cup water
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 4 tablespoons grass-fed beef gelatin
- Silicone mold
Tools
- Silicone mold
Instructions
- Make the Herbal Tea
Start by making a tea with the fennel seeds, catnip, and ginger root. Combine ¼ cup of each herb with 1 cup of water in a small saucepan. Bring it to a gentle simmer over low heat and then let it steep for 10 minutes. Strain the tea to remove the herbs, leaving behind a fragrant liquid packed with digestive benefits.
- Add Honey and Gelatin
While the tea is still warm (but not hot), slowly stir in 2 tablespoons of honey and 4 tablespoons of grass-fed gelatin. It’s important to mix gradually and thoroughly to ensure the gelatin dissolves completely. If needed, warm the mixture gently over low heat, stirring constantly, but avoid overheating to preserve the health benefits.
- Fill the Silicone Mold
Pour the mixture into your silicone mold. For easier handling, use a pipette to transfer the liquid into each cavity. If you don’t have a silicone mold, a glass baking dish can work too—just cut the gummies into squares once set.
- Chill and Enjoy
Refrigerate the molds for a few hours until the gummies are firm. Once set, pop them out of the mold and store them in the fridge. These homemade gelatin gummies will last about 2-3 weeks in the fridge, making them a convenient tummy-friendly treat whenever you need them.
These tummy relief gummies are a natural way to tackle common digestive issues. The soothing combination of fennel, catnip, and ginger makes them perfect for easing an upset stomach, reducing gas and bloating, and even calming mild nausea.
Fennel seeds are known for their ability to relax the digestive muscles, while ginger helps with queasiness and discomfort.
Catnip adds a gentle calming effect, making these gummies great for both kids and adults when their digestion needs a little extra support. Whether it’s after a heavy meal or for occasional tummy troubles, these gummies are a handy and healthy remedy to have on hand.
Tips and Notes for Making Homemade Gummies
These gummies have a natural, slightly bitter taste due to the herbs. If you prefer a sweeter flavor, feel free to add a little sugar, maple syrup, or monk fruit. While these are safe for kids, start with just one gummy for little tummies. These healthy gummies are a wonderful addition to your natural health recipes and are perfect for keeping your digestive system happy and balanced.
