Q. Do Fennel seeds have ayurvedic importance too?

Answer

In Ayurveda, all three Trodoshas are reduced by fennel seeds (Vata, Pitta, Kapha). The seeds provide a refreshing sensation to the body. It is good to drink a fennel seed drink during the hot summer months to help the body cool down. The carminative oil in the seeds is used in massage mixtures, particularly in Ayurveda, to quiet the nerves and enhance mental clarity.
