Star Anise

Star Anise

Star Anise (Illicium Verum), the brown star-shaped spice widely used in Asian cuisine, has many health benefits ranging from boosting the immune system to alleviating digestive issues such as bloating, gas, indigestion, and constipation.

Our own Digestion 360 contains star anise seed, along with many other extracts and probiotics which all help to soothe an irritated digestive tract, reduce bloating, rebuild healthy gut flora and regulate bowel movements.

If you suffer from gas, abdominal cramps, indigestion, bloating and constipation, consider adding star anise to your next broth, sauce, tea or spice rub for meat. 

If the licorice flavor isn’t your “cup of tea”, it pairs well with ginger, cinnamon or citrus for added health benefits.
