Mon Dec 02 20:37:34 UTC 2024: ## Bollywood Star’s Motion Sickness Remedy Goes Viral: Fennel Seeds to the Rescue

**MUMBAI, INDIA** – Shalini Passi, a prominent art patron and star of Netflix’s “Fabulous Lives vs Bollywood Wives,” revealed her simple yet effective remedy for motion sickness: fennel seeds (saunf). In a recent interview with Galatta India, Passi cited fennel seeds as one of her three must-have bag essentials, crediting them with easing her frequent dizziness.

This traditional remedy, already popular in various cultures, is now gaining attention thanks to Passi’s endorsement. Dietician Anushree Sharma explained to indianexpress.com that fennel’s anti-inflammatory and anti-bacterial properties, particularly the compound anethole, help relax the digestive tract, alleviating nausea and vomiting often associated with motion sickness. Sharma notes that other natural remedies, while containing different active compounds, offer similar benefits.

However, Sharma cautions against overconsumption, advising moderate use either directly or as a decoction. Excessive intake can lead to digestive discomfort or vomiting. Individuals should also be mindful of potential allergies or interactions with medications before incorporating fennel into a regular routine. Always consult a healthcare professional before starting any new remedy.
