Fennel is a biennial or perennial plant that grows wild in the Mediterranean area and in Asia Minor but is commonly cultivated in the U.S. and Europe. Fennel is one of the more estrogenic of plants and is very similar to fenugreek. Herbal data bases indicate that Fennel seed contains some of the highest levels of natural estrogens, phyto-nutrients and diosgenin that add to healthy breast tissue. These phyto-nutrients are mild and have many health benefits. Because these natural estrogens and phyto-nutrients can replace excess estrogen in the system, they can help calm hormonal swings associated with PMS and menopause. Many chemical and environmental toxins will mimic estrogen and attach to the estrogen receptor sites within the mammary glands. The plant nutrients can help to wash these out of the system, aiding in increasing the health of the breast tissue. Fennel is commonly used to treat amenhorrea, angina, asthma, heartburn, high blood pressure and to boost sexual desire. Fennel helps to arouse appetite, relieve colic, abdominal cramps and is also used to improve the kidneys, spleen, liver and lungs. There are no side effects or contradictions with normal use.
