Application
Like dill and caraway, anethi is usually more effective when used as part of a blend of essential oils.
Aromatic Considerations
Anethi is reminiscent of dill with some caraway-like notes.
Physical Aspects
Anethi, in hydrosol or well-diluted, has been used to relieve flatulence in infants. Anethi is also known as a mild and soothing expectorant and has been used to dilate blood vessels and lower blood pressure.
Cautions
There are no cautions for anethi, but all essential oils should be used cautiously by pregnant women and those suffering from seizure disorders.
