Fennel Seeds
Gas, Colic & Indigestion
🌿 Fennel Seeds
Contains anethole which relaxes smooth muscles in the digestive tract, relieving spasms, gas, and bloating. Used for centuries as an after-meal digestive aid in Indian cuisine.
✅ 主要功效
📋 使用方法
Chew 1 tsp fennel seeds after meals. Or steep 1 tsp crushed seeds in hot water for 10 minutes as tea.
⚠️ 安全与注意事项
May increase estrogen. Avoid in large amounts during pregnancy.
☠️ 毒性与过量风险
Excessive fennel consumption (>7g/day) may cause estrogenic effects including gynecomastia in men and hormonal disruption. Fennel essential oil is much more concentrated and toxic — ingestion of the oil can cause seizures, hallucinations, and respiratory failure. Contains estragole, which is potentially carcinogenic at very high doses in animal studies.
