HOW STAR ANISE HEALS
+ Soothes stomach woes
Star anise is a powerful antibacterial that can prevent infections. In a test-tube study, compounds in the spice blocked the growth of E. coli, a bacteria that can cause diarrhea and cramps. The spice also has an antispasmodic effect that eases GI discomfort.
+ Boosts immunity
Two compounds found in star anise (shikimic acid and quercetin) are used to make the flu medicine Tamiflu. That’s how powerfully they boost immune function! In fact, according to a study in the Journal of Medical Virology, simply boosting your intake of these antioxidants can significantly increase your body’s production of immune cells.
+ Balances blood sugar
Anethole, a compound in star anise, may help regulate enzymes that help the body use and burn carbohydrates, according to an animal study published in Biochimie. That means you’ll have fewer energy-draining dips in blood sugar, especially if you enjoy the spice before a meal.
