Spices, anise seed

Nutrition Facts & Diabetes Guide

With 18g of protein per 100g, Anise seed contributes meaningful protein to the plate — protein also helps slow the glucose rise when paired with carbohydrate. At 15g of fiber per 100g, Anise seed is a real fiber source. Fiber slows carbohydrate absorption and supports steadier glucose. No ISO-tested GI value is published for anise seed in the Sydney University GI tables, so GlycemicWise shows it as a Tier 5 nutrition reference rather than assigning a green/yellow/red verdict.
