Soothing the Stomach

9/11/2012

 
Fennel seed, also known as Xiao Hui Xiang, is known to soothe and warm the digestive track. Sometimes you will see a bowl of fennel at Indian restaurants. Fennel helps move the Qi in the stomach, so next time you see a bowl of it in a restaurant, take a bit and see if it helps relax and soothe your stomach. 

For children, the recommended treatment is to use Gripe Water, which contains fennel (or Xiao Hui Xiang), ginger, and chamomile. It is used to help teething, colic, and digestive problems in young children.
