Background:

Star anise or Illicium verum is a popular spice that is mainly produced in India, China and the Philipines. It is has a similar flavor to regular anise and one may be substituted for the other in cooking. Star anise is used throughout the globe and features heavily in Indian dishes like garam masala and Chinese five-spice powder. However, there are many health benefits in star anise and its star-shaped seedpods (pericarps). The pods are responsible for the unique flavor of star anise and contain the chemical compound shikimic acid. Shikimic acid is used to make Tamiflu (oseltamivir), which is an important drug prescribed to treat influenza, bird flu and swine flu.

Description:

Illicium verum is a spice that closely resembles anise in flavor, obtained from the star-shaped pericarp of Illicium verum, a medium-sized native evergreen tree of northeast Vietnam and southwest China. The star shaped fruits are harvested just before ripening

It has been used in a tea as a traditional remedy for rheumatism, and the seeds are sometimes chewed after meals to aid digestion.[citation needed] As a warm and moving herb, star anise is used to assist in relieving cold-stagnation in the middle jiao, according to Traditional Chinese medicine.

It is the major source of the chemical compound shikimic acid, a primary precursor in the pharmaceutical synthesis of anti-influenza drug oseltamivir (Tamiflu).
