Known as one of the healthiest foods on the planet, the wholly edible fennel even feels good to say, so it must be true.
Excessive bloating, gas, colic? A tea of fennel is a carminative, meaning it expels gas. Double whammy with the tonic; it promotes milk production in nursing mothers. Don’t over do it: premature breast development in those drinking fennel laced breast milk has been reported. Oops!
But better news, in the form of an extract from the root, fennel has been known to cure “cloudy” eyes with Greeks naming it “the herb of sight”.
“a cure for cloudy eyes”, 7.5” x 11”, water-based media on index, 2013.
