Aniseed 100g

Pharma Germania Natural Products Aniseed is a dried preparation of Pimpinella anisum, an aromatic seed with a long history of culinary and traditional herbal use.

Aniseed is particularly valued as a carminative and digestive herb. Traditionally, it has been used after meals to support digestion and help relieve occasional sensations of bloating, intestinal gas and digestive discomfort.

The seeds naturally contain aromatic volatile oils, with anethole being one of their best-known constituents. These aromatic compounds contribute to Aniseed’s characteristic liquorice-like flavour and have led to its traditional use in digestive and respiratory herbal preparations.

Aniseed has also traditionally been described as an expectorant, antispasmodic, carminative and galactagogue. These descriptions reflect traditional herbal practice and should not be interpreted as evidence that Aniseed treats respiratory diseases, infant colic or other medical conditions.
