About Fennel seeds
Fennel seeds are aromatic spices derived from the fennel plant, native to the Mediterranean region, and widely used in cuisines across the globe, particularly in Indian, Middle Eastern, and Italian cooking. These small, greenish-brown seeds boast a sweet, licorice-like flavor and are rich in nutrients like fiber, antioxidants, vitamin C, manganese, and potassium. Known for their digestive benefits, fennel seeds may help reduce bloating, indigestion, and flatulence. Their antioxidant properties support cellular health, while the fiber content promotes gut health. Additionally, fennel seeds contain plant compounds like anethole, which have anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial effects. Although generally healthy, they should be consumed in moderation, as excessive intake may lead to side effects for certain individuals, such as allergies or interactions with medications. Versatile and nutritious, fennel seeds are a flavorful addition to teas, baked goods, curries, and spice blends.
