Fennel seeds

Fennel seeds are the seeds of the fennel plant, used as a spice. The figures here describe the seeds and are drawn from literature sources. Per 100g, they provide 15g of fat, 16g of protein, 1200mg of calcium and 390mg of magnesium.

Calcium helps maintain bones and teeth and supports normal muscle function. Magnesium also contributes to normal muscle and nerve function, while protein is needed for tissue growth and repair. Fennel seeds are generally used in small amounts, so their contribution to nutrient intake depends on how much is eaten. Full nutrient figures are in the tables below.
