Caraway has been known to be a gas-releasing and anti-spasmodic digestive aid due to its essential oils, which are carvone, carveol, and limonene. These oils make caraway an effective remedy for flatulence, colic, and bloating. In addition, the limonene released when chewing fresh caraway seeds is said to help combat bad breath.
Customer reviews
I like to make carraway seed biscuits - they remind me of childhood and visiting my granny who always used to have freshly baked carraway biscuits in the pantry. Delicious.
