Al-Marsad newspaper: Clinical Nutrition Consultant Dr. Abdulaziz Al-Othman revealed many benefits of “fennel”, especially for heart patients, stressing that it is very important for the body.
Al-Othman said in a video clip on his account on Tik Tok that fennel is the key to health for patients with heart disease, high cholesterol, nervous and digestive problems, and is also beneficial for patients with diabetes.
He added, “Fennel has many benefits, including strengthening the immune system, relieving menstrual pain, and also beneficial for the skin.”
Al-Othman stressed the importance of not “boiling” fennel, and only placing it in hot water at the rate of one tablespoon per liter of water for 10 minutes in order to preserve its nutritional value.
He pointed out that it is flavorful to the mouth and contains magnesium, potassium, calcium and many vitamins.
