Foeniculum vulgare
Fennel is one of the top herbs for regulating digestion. It warms and stimulates the digestive organs without irritating sensitive tissues or aggravating acid reflux. It promotes healthy appetite, helps the body release gas, and is an excellent remedy for colic and for headaches related to improper digestion. Its antispasmodic effects make it a good herb to include in blends featuring stimulant laxatives, which can cause painful cramping if not blended with more soothing digestives. Fennel’s antispasmodic action also benefits the respiratory system, calming a hacking or convulsive cough. It lends a delicious flavor and aromatic lift to herbal blends and cough syrups. It can be used as a mild diuretic and kidney cleanser, especially in combination with other kidney-specific herbs. Fennel also promotes the flow of breast milk in nursing mothers- it is often blended with fenugreek and goat’s rue for this purpose.

"If you want to change your life and overall well-being take the first step and visit the Herb Shoppe. They are so knowledgeable in herbs, flower essences, and everything vital to life. I am so very grateful for this store."
"The herb shoppe is amazing! I had such a positive experience and the staff was so patient and helpful. As a newbie to herbalism and apothecary, it's so refreshing to be guided and helped out without any judgement. Vicky is super awesome and knows so much about herbalism and essential oils. Great selection of herbs and they have some delicious kombucha on tap."
"This place is amazing. The staff there are always very helpful. Reasonable prices for a large selection of herbs, teas, etc. They have smudge sticks and other things too. I am a huge fan of their turmeric chips for my inflammation. It's better than taking ibuprofen, and I can just drop a few chips in my tea."
