Today, we may have forgotten the therapeutic properties of the entire plant, especially its seeds. However, our ancestors were well aware of them since the time of Hippocrates.
They also used fennel seeds in medicine, recognizing its properties as an appetizer, diaphoretic, and antipyretic. It was given as a decoction to nursing mothers as it increased milk production. They believed it had the ability to promote weight loss.
The Romans believed that reptiles consumed the plant’s juice to improve their vision, and Pliny recommended the herb for ‘blurred vision in humans.’ In the Middle Ages, chewing fennel seeds was a popular method to stop burping during church services.
Chinese and Indian cultures used fennel for snake and scorpion bites, as well as for poisoning. The Chinese believe that fennel seeds, known as Hui Xiang, are tonic for the spleen and kidneys, and are used to treat urinary and reproductive disorders.
It is an excellent remedy for the stomach and intestines, providing relief from bloating and colic, while simultaneously stimulating digestion and enhancing appetite. It has a calming effect similar to that of Anise in treating bronchitis and cough.
It can thus be used to improve the taste of various remedies for cough. Fennel also increases milk production in nursing mothers, helping to relieve infant colic.
