Men have no appetite? Eat this to stimulate appetite and aid digestion!

Fennel is a kind of food that people can eat in daily life. Many people think that the origin of fennel is in China. In fact, this food originated from Europe. It was only after it was introduced to my country that many regions began to grow it. So, what are the effects of eating fennel in daily life?

Stimulate appetite and aid digestion

The two volatile oils in fennel, anethole and anisealdehyde, can produce a special aroma, thereby stimulating the secretion of saliva and gastric juice. In addition, the beneficial substances in fennel can also stimulate the gastrointestinal nerves and blood vessels, thereby increasing people's appetite, and the secretion of gastric juice can help the stomach and intestines digest and absorb food.

Sterilization

Fennel contains a substance called anisole, which is good news for those with cold and weak stomachs, because this substance has the effect of warming the stomach and killing bacteria. It has a very obvious effect on killing bacteria such as Escherichia coli and Shigella. Therefore, those with cold and weak stomachs can add a small amount of fennel to their daily dishes to prevent various infectious diarrhea.

Food taboos

Although fennel has many functions and effects, it is not suitable for everyone. According to the "Compendium of Materia Medica", if the small intestine, bladder and stomach are suffering from stasis and heat, taking fennel will only make the disease worse. In other words, people with Yin deficiency and fire excess constitution are not suitable for taking fennel.
