Star anise is rich in a variety of flavonoids and polyphenolic compounds that may contribute to its medicinal capacity.

The most valuable component of star anise may lie within its dense supply of flavonoids and polyphenols. These may primarily be responsible for the spice’s broad applications and medicinal benefits (2).

Some of the major health-promoting compounds found in star anise include (2, 3Trusted Source, 4):

• Linalool
• Quercetin
• Anethole
• Shikimic acid
• Gallic acid
• Limonene

Together, these compounds may contribute to the antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties of star anise.

Some animal and test-tube research indicates that the antioxidant capacity of this spice may even possess anti-cancer properties, such as reducing tumor size (5Trusted Source, 6).
