What are the three functions of fennel

Fennel is a common green vegetable in northern China. People usually like to make dumplings or dumplings with it. Today I want to introduce the effect and function of fennel.

I believe that many friends still remember the fennel that Kong Yiji ate in an article written by Lu Xun. The fennel mentioned here is made of fennel. Fennel not only has a very special aroma, can be added to our daily diet dishes, but also its medicinal value is quite high.

Effect and function of fennel

Anisone and anisaldehyde in fennel can produce special aroma, which can stimulate the secretion of human saliva and gastric juice. In addition, the beneficial substances in fennel can also stimulate gastrointestinal nerves and blood vessels, so as to enhance people's appetite. The secretion of gastric juice can help the digestion and absorption of food by the intestine and stomach.

Efficacy and function of fennel -- sterilization

Fennel contains a substance called anisole, which can warm the stomach and kill bacteria. Especially for killing Escherichia coli, dysentery and other bacteria has a very obvious role. So the friends with cold stomach and weak stomach can add a small amount of fennel in the usual dishes, so as to prevent a variety of infectious diarrhea.

Effect and function of fennel -- regulating menstruation

The mixture of fennel and angelica, Fructus aurantii and water is a small prescription used by some folk women to regulate menstruation. The specific method is to take fennel and Angelica 15 grams each, 12 grams of trifoliate, fried with water. Drink once a day, morning and evening. This food therapy prescription can play the role of dispelling cold and warming the uterus, and is suitable for dysmenorrhea, amenorrhea and other symptoms.

Although there are many effects and functions of fennel, it is not suitable for all people to eat. According to the records in the collection of Materia Medica, if the syndrome of small intestine, bladder and stomach is suffering from heat of stasis, it will increase the disease. That is to say, the people with Yin deficiency and fire vigorous constitution are not suitable to use fennel.

Through the above content, I believe that after reading the friends have a more comprehensive understanding of the effect and function of cumin. The use of fennel as the ingredient of dishes can not only promote digestion, increase our appetite, but also play the role of sterilization and warm stomach. It can also play an important role in regulating menstruation by using fennel with other herbs.
