  • Metabolic Effect: Anise has digestive and gas-relieving properties. Thanks to the fiber it contains, it can regulate bowel movements and help with constipation.
  • Consumption Recommendation: You can brew anise as tea or add it to your dishes as a spice. It is ideal for adding flavor to fish and chicken dishes in particular.
