Guest guest Posted June 2, 2005 Report Share Posted June 2, 2005 Jina, I just gave my father fennel seeds to chew on the other day. Actually, I kinda stuck a bunch in his mouth and even made him drink an entire glass of water (he drinks none) He suffers from terrible stomach and chest pain. I figured they could not hurt and if they help then all the better :)Since I joined this group I have been using ginger myself and love it. Hope everyone is doing well. Wishing all a wonderful and blessed night Toni I take ginger for all my digestive ailments works great for me and I read somewhere that after you have eaten a gasy sort of meal to chew on some fennel seeds and that (i think) should do the trick (correct me if I am wrong) Jina Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fennel has also been used to stimulate lactation, as a remedy against colic, and to improve the taste of other medicines. Chinese herbal medicine includes the use of fennel for gastroenteritis, hernia, indigestion, abdominal pain, and to resolve phlegm and stimulate milk production . Fennel is known to provoke both photodermatitis and contact dermatitis in humans . The volatile oil may cause nausea, vomiting, seizures, and pulmonary edema .
