Star anise - Import export

Anise essential oil is extracted from the seeds of the anise plant, known as Pimpinella anisum, and is noted for its sweet and spicy aroma. This essential oil has antioxidant, antimicrobial and expectorant properties, making it an effective natural remedy for relieving respiratory problems such as cough and cold. It is also used to improve digestion and relieve gastrointestinal problems, such as gas and indigestion, due to its carminative properties. Additionally, anise essential oil is used in aromatherapy to reduce stress and relieve mental tension, providing a calming and relaxing effect. It is used in small quantities and diluted appropriately, as its aroma can be quite strong, and can cause skin irritation if used in high concentrations. Also available: Badiana star anise and Matalahuga anise.
