Fennel
Biological Source
Fennel consists of the dried ripe fruits of Foeniculum vulgare Miller., belonging to family Umbelliferae.
Geographical Source
Fennel is indigenous to Mediterranean countries and Asia; it is largely cultivated in France, Saxony, Japan, Galicia, Russia, India, and Persia.
Characteristics
The fruit is an entire cremocarps with pedicels, oval-oblong and 5 to 10 mm long, 2 to 4 mm broad. It has greenish-brown to yellowish brown colour with five prominent primary ridges and a bifid stylopod at the apex.
Chemical Constituents
The best varieties of Fennel contain 4 to 5% of volatile oil. The primary constituents of volatile oil are 50 to 60% of anethole, a phenolic ester; and 18 to 22% of fenchone, a ketone. Fenchone is chemically a bicyclic monoterpene which is a colourless liquid and the odour and taste is pungent and camphoraceous. The oil of Fennel has β-pinene, anisic acid, phellandrine, and anisic aldehyde. Fennel also contains about 20% fixed oil and 20% proteins.
Uses
Fennel is used as stomachic, aromatic, diuretic, carminative, diaphoretic, as a digestive, pectoral, and flavouring agent. Anethole may have estrogen-like activity and inhibit spasms in smooth muscles. Fennel can increase production of bile, used in the treatment of infant colic, to promote menstrua-tion in women, can increase lactation, act as antipyretic, antimicrobial and antiinflammatory.
