Fennel stems have a sweet anise or licorice taste, can be eaten much like celery; its seeds spice up
recipes for fish and other dishes and contain the most medicinal action. Indigenous to the
Mediterranean, this member of the parsley family now grows all over the world. A few eastern European
countries, Egypt, and China are the major cultivators.
Fennel can also help with Bronchitis, gas, gastritis, intestinal inflammation, mucos membrane
inflammation, respiratory disease, breast milk deficiency, breathing stoppage, colic, constipation,
diarrhea, liver disease, low libido, menopause, nausea, obesity, stomachache, bed-wetting, cellulite,
cancer, and vomiting.
