Fennel (foeniculum vulgare)
Another wonderful traditional french herb. Growing wild in abundance, we found heaps on the coasts next to st Michaels Mount.
Fennel is one of the main herbs I use in clinic for digestive upsets such as nausea, colic, diarrhea and flatulence. Even helps with weight loss.
Good for breast feeding mothers with colicky babies and to enhance lactation.
It is anti microbial and the seeds can be added to many foods or chewed on after dinner to help with digestion.
Also beneficial for respiratory infections e.g bronchitis and asthma.
