Big secrets of health are hidden in small fennel; Know its surefire remedies and unmatched benefits in summers.

In the summer season, even a little carelessness in eating habits takes a toll on health. In such a situation, fennel, which is included in the kitchen spices, works as an excellent medicine. Fennel with its cooling effect not only enhances the taste of food but also provides instant relief from many minor physical problems. By using just half or one spoon of fennel daily properly, one can get rid of many health problems forever.

Fennel is a powerhouse of nutrients

It would be a mistake to consider fennel as a mere mouth freshener, because it is a storehouse of nutrients essential for health.

According to the US Department of Agriculture, “100 grams of fennel contains 1.24 grams of protein and 3.1 grams of total dietary fiber.”

Additionally, fennel contains abundant amounts of calcium, magnesium, manganese, potassium, phosphorus, vitamin C and B complex vitamins. Not only this, it also contains very important nutrients like Vitamin A (Keratin Beta), Vitamin E, Lutein and Zeaxanthin which keep the body healthy, which play a big role in keeping the eyesight and digestive system healthy.

Panacea for these problems

Regular and proper use of fennel can remove many major problems of daily life:

• Relief from period pain and cramps: Fennel water provides great relief to women in unbearable pain and stomach upset during menstruation. For this, boil one spoon fennel thoroughly in water and filter it. When this water remains lukewarm, add one spoon of honey in it and drink it sip by sip.

• Elimination of bloating and gas problems: If you suffer from bloating or gas after eating a heavy meal, chew half a teaspoon of fennel and eat it immediately after the meal. By doing this, the digestive enzymes of the body get activated, due to which food is digested properly. Drinking fennel water provides instant relief in case of acidity.

• Get rid of bad breath: Fennel is a great natural mouth freshener for people suffering from bad breath. Fennel has anti-bacterial properties that eliminate germs in the mouth. Chewing half a teaspoon of fennel two to three times a day keeps the breath fresh. Many times, excessive heat in the stomach and poor digestion also become the main causes of bad breath, which is cured by fennel root.

Will keep the body cool in summer season

During scorching summer days, people’s digestion often deteriorates, body temperature increases and the problem of dehydration (lack of water) starts. Since fennel has a cooling effect, it is very effective in reducing the ill effects of heat. To avoid these problems, consuming fennel syrup or herbal tea made from fennel in summer is considered very beneficial, which provides internal coolness and freshness to the body.
