Fennel plants grow up to six feet tall, sprouting delicate, feathery leaves as they mature. It’s said Roman warriors consumed fennel in preparation for battle. Fennel essential oil is best recognized for its distinct licorice aroma and taste. It can be added to water as a satisfying alternative to sweets. Fennel oil also promotes metabolic, digestive, and circulatory function when ingested.* From the Doterra website: Shelf life testing performed on essential oils has shown that essential oils maintain their efficacy even after 5–10 years or more.
