Description
Fennel has an ancient history as a medicine and is currently popular in Europe and the Middle East, where it is administered most extensively. The fruit of fennel contains the greatest concentration of therapeutic components. Among the antioxidants is vitamin E. Fennel contains 75% of its vitamin E as garnmatocotrienol, making it higher than virtually any other substance tested. This substance is regarded as the most powerful antioxidant of the vitamin B family.
The mineral content of fennel seed is impressive, and it is particularly rich in calcium and potassium. It also contains large amounts of magnesium and phosphorus. Fennel essential oil is a convenient means to gain the benefits of this plant. If you suffer from an upset stomach indigestion, or intestinal gas, use oil of fennel.

Lactating mothers who are failing to produce enough milk desperately need fennel. Take 5 to 10 drops twice daily.
Fennel oil is invaluable for colic and stomach aches in children. Since it is fairly potent, use only a small amount; 1 or 2 drops. Caution: do not administer to newborns.
