Fennel with its latter name “Foeniculum vulgare” belongs to the “apiaceae” family. The name is derived as a diminutive of the latin word “foenom” meaning “hay” which certainly has to do with the grass-like feathery appearance of the leaves. The numerous health benefits of fennel characterise it as an all-around medicinal plant in oil. It is still an indispensable household remedy for many to have at hand at any time. Fennel oil's major virtues are antiseptic and antispasmodic. Fennel unfolds strong relaxing healing powers on nerves muscles and the respiratory tract and also through the spasmodic attacks in case of painful coughs. As an operative it works mildly purgative thereby influencing the intestinal peristatic motion. It's depurative, fennel oil acts as a detoxifier and cleans the blood from unwanted deposits like uric acid and other substances.
