Dill has long been prized for its culinary and medicinal properties, with its praises sung in the Bible and in ancient Egyptian, Greek, and Roman texts.

Health benefits:

• Dill is traditional herbal carminative (stomach soother).
• Certain aromatic constituents of dill (terpenes) activate a key antioxidant enzyme in the body called glutathione-S-transferase. This makes dill a “chemoprotective” food that can help neutralize some carcinogens, such as the benzopyrenes that are part of cigarette smoke, wood smoke, and incinerator emissions.
• Like garlic, the volatile oils in dill can prevent bacterial overgrowth.
