Star anise has digestive, carminative, expectorant, and antibiotic properties. It is used as a chew, in infusions and as a spice in the kitchen. It favors the expulsion of gases and reduces abdominal bloating.
It is very useful in cases of heavy digestion, intestinal fermentation and flatulence (excess gas). Due to its slightly antispasmodic action, it relieves spasms of the hollow viscera (gallbladder, stomach, intestine, uterus).
