Description

Raw Organic Fennel Seeds 4 oz

We started out with two fennel plants. Now we have fifty. 🤓 💞 I’m seriously not kidding. It grows perfectly well in partial shade. It can take a hard drought. It only has one real pest, but such a beautiful pest that we don’t even try to keep them out of the garden… the Anise and the Black Swallowtail Butterfly.

Fennel is loaded with antioxidant properties, it is useful in fighting signs of aging. Fennel seeds, when consumed daily, provide the body with the minerals iron, zinc, selenium and calcium. These minerals are effective in maintaining the oxygen balance, supporting healthy skin.

Fennel shines as an herb to aid the digestive process. The seeds can simply be chewed or a tea/infusion made with them for the same purpose.

👍 Fennel compares favorably to ascorbic acid for its anti-oxidant activity!

Fennel water (infusion/tea) is often used to ease colic in babies. If drunk during breastfeeding it may help reduce colic in the infant. Fennel also has a mild diuretic action and a cleansing action on the kidneys and is thought to promote the flow of breast milk in nursing mothers.
