Anise seed essential oil is used for upset stomach, intestinal gas, "runny nose," and as an expectorant to increase productive coughs, as a diuretic to increase urine flow, and as an appetite stimulant.

This oil can relieve rheumatic and arthritic pain by stimulating blood circulation and reducing the sensation of pain in the affected areas.

This essential oil also has antiseptic properties that give wounds an effective protective layer against infections and sepsis. This helps in faster healing of wounds.

The warming effect of this oil on the respiratory and circulatory systems makes it cordial. This property helps counteract colds, phlegm deposition and problems such as rheumatism and arthritis.

Anise essential oil is toxic to insects and smaller animals, so its scent keeps insects away. For this reason, this oil can be used to repel insects by using it in fumigants, vaporizers, and sprays.
