Re: Fennel tea       04/21/04 11:38 AM Edit Reply Quote jenX Reged: 08/11/03 Posts: 3252 Loc: Richmond, VA that's cute. "having to urinate a lot" isn't graphic! no worries! we've heard worse... much worse! i don't know about the fennel, but tea in general is a diuretic, isn't it? i just googled it up and found this: "Fennel Properties/Actions: Carminative, Anti-inflammatory, Stimulant, Antispasmodic." ("carminative" has to do with increasing gastric juicies. yuck.) doesn't say diuretic... but then the next 4 sites or so say "The tea is an effective and safe diuretic" or words to that effect. there ya go! guess it is... WHO KNEW!? (ok, guess you did!) all these explanations for why i'm running to the potty all day. you guys are the best! -------------------- Print     Remind Me     Notify Moderator
