Fennel water, a little tips from the kitchen to keep the intestines healthy

THÙY DƯƠNG (T/H) |

Jeera is not only a familiar spice but also a natural "digestive aid" that helps regulate bowel movements, reduce reflux and bloating effectively.

indigestion, bloating, and flatulence are seemingly small digestive problems that make many people suffer. According to Anjana B Nair, a nutrition consultant in India, fennel seeds are a rich source of fiber and antioxidants, which help support digestion and regulate bowel movements. Fennel seeds help food to be digested more easily, stimulate digestive enzymes and support natural excretion, the expert shared.

Here are 6 outstanding digestive benefits of fennel water:

stimulating digestive enzymes

Fennel seeds help the stomach produce more enzymes, thereby helping food to be better classified. The digestion process becomes smooth, reducing the risk of bloating and indigestion after eating.

Reduced bloating and indigestion

Thanks to its essential oil with anti-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory properties, fennel water helps relax the smooth muscles of the intestines, reducing gas accumulation and feeling full after meals.

Regulating bowel movements

Fennel seeds have a mild laxative effect thanks to their natural fiber content. Jeera helps secrete mucus in the digestive tract, making stools pass more easily and preventing constipation, explains Anjana B Nair.

Increased nutrient absorption

Some compounds in fennel seeds help the intestines absorb vitamins and minerals better. Effective digestion also means that the body receives more benefits from the foods you eat.

Reducing reflux and heartburn

With antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties, fennel seeds can soothe the stomach lining, neutralize acids and reduce the burning sensation of the chest area, a common symptom of stomach reflux.

Support irritable bowel syndrome (IBS)

A study published in PubMed Central shows that anti-inflammatory compounds in fennel seeds can reduce abdominal pain and improve symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome.

How to use fennel plants to aid digestion

Fennel water: Boil 1 tablespoon of fennel seeds with 1 cup of water, let cool and drink on an empty stomach in the morning.

Include in the dish: Roast the fennel seeds in oil before adding other ingredients to enhance flavor and digestive efficiency.
