Why is fennel tea perfect after meals?

Its anise aroma brings a touch of freshness and lightness, allowing for a pleasant end to the meal. Moreover, its gentle and comforting flavor provides a sense of well-being and relaxation, conducive to digestion. It is best enjoyed after meals.

The digestive benefits of fennel after a meal

The fennel seed, rich in anethole, is a powerful ally for the digestive system. It stimulates the production of digestive enzymes, thus facilitating food breakdown and assimilation by the body. The antispasmodic attributes of fennel relieve cramps and abdominal pain that can occur after a heavy dinner. By regulating intestinal transit, fennel tea also prevents constipation and diarrhea.

How to prepare fennel tea? 

To enjoy the many qualities of fennel tea, it is recommended to follow the information on the packaging when preparing it. Product quantity, infusion temperature, and ideal tasting time, here's everything you need to know.

How much fennel tea should you use?

Plan for 12 to 15 grams of product per liter of water. Preparing just one cup? Adjust the quantity according to its size. For a cup of about 250 ml, simply divide the proportions by 4, which is about 3 grams of plant, corresponding to a teaspoon.

What is the ideal infusion temperature for fennel tea?

The ideal infusion temperature for fennel tea is 100°C. You can check the water temperature using a kitchen thermometer.

When to drink fennel tea?

Fennel tea can be drunk at any time of day or evening, up to 3 cups per day. If you suffer from bloating, consume it at the end of meals to reduce the discomfort associated with digestive problems.

Precautions to take with fennel tea

While fennel tea is a drink with multiple virtues, it can present certain dangers if consumed excessively or under particular conditions. Indeed, this aromatic infusion, made from the seeds and leaves of foeniculum vulgare, contains powerful active compounds such as anethole and estragole. Excessive intake of these substances can lead to unwanted effects, ranging from mild digestive disorders to more serious complications. People with allergies to plants in the Apiaceae family, such as dill or caraway, should be vigilant as fennel can cause skin or respiratory reactions. Additionally, pregnant and nursing women should consult their doctor before regularly drinking this tea, as it can stimulate uterine contractions and affect breast milk production. Despite these precautions, fennel tea remains a valuable ally when enjoyed in moderation and with discernment.
