Fennel
Culinary Herb and Medicinal
Many use fennel for the bulbs (nutrition facts below) or seeds, but I also use the leaves to add a little extra flavor to salads.
Medicinal uses include:
Teas for intestinal spasms, cramps, indigestion, gas and gas pains, irritable bowel syndrome, and infant colic.
Eye bath to reduce inflammation, soreness, and conjunctivitis.
A fennel mouthwash is effective for gum disease.
