Fresh fennel is a powerhouse of anti-inflammatory phytonutrients such as anethole, rutin, and quercetin. Anethole, for example, works at the genetic level by down-regulating an inflammation triggering molecule called NF-kB. Fresh fennel is also a good source of vitamin C, fiber, and potassium. Enjoy this antioxidant-rich smoothie for breakfast or a late afternoon snack!
