Fennel fruits contain a variety of biologically active substances that have a positive impact on the body, including the weight loss process: flavonoids, essential and fatty oils, provitamin A, vitamins C, E, K, PP, minerals – iron, potassium, calcium.
The main properties of fennel fruits contributing to weight normalization include:
• Elimination of excess fluids from the body (fennel acts as a mild diuretic);
• Improvement of metabolism (accelerates metabolic processes, facilitating faster digestion of consumed food);
• Reduction of blood sugar and cholesterol levels (which reduces the desire for sweet foods);
• Calming effect on the nervous system (important when stress leads to increased food cravings).
Fennel fruits for weight loss can be used as a seasoning (for baking, soups, salads) or made into an infusion, or even chewed. A decoction will also be effective.
