I take one or two fennel capsules as a chaser to a heavy meal or when taking a combination of strong tasting herbs and supplements on an empty stomach. I can describe the effect best as "refreshing" or "neutralizing" on the stomach; I find myself having less lingering tastes and burps from the food or supplements. I also sometimes have episodes of "fast" intestinal urgency and bloating from certain foods or during times of anxiety and stress. I do notice a calming effect on my lower digestive system, and it definitely helps expel gas, especially in the morning, so that my bowels feel more comfortable throughout the day! I recommend the seeds in capsules but it can also be eaten as raw seeds if you can tolerate the strong anise/black licorice taste.

I don't like this taste, the tincture is sweet and syrupy. But it does make my stomach feel better, I take this and fenugreek when I eat a big meal. I do notice breast enlarging effects as well!! especially after I got off it for several months (for running out), and I just started taking again and it really enhances a smaller bust

I brew a tea in the morning if I am feeling bloated or my tummy is unsettled - a dozen bruised fennel seeds, 1/4 of lemon (squeeze out the juice, then pop in whole segment). It is very calming, takes away the bloating & is quite refreshing. I got used to the taste very quickly.

I learn't it was a pain relief. But yesterday I has a serious heartburn after eating pizza and I decided to drink fresh fennel in hot water I was amazed at the relief. So I goggled today and discovered it does relieve heartburn.
