Health Benefits of Chervil

2. Chervil is good for digestion

Perhaps the French were onto something when they elevated chervil to one of the centerpiece herbs of their cuisine. The tender, fragrant leaves of chervil boast thousands of years of use as a digestive aid. Chevril is low in calories but very high in fiber, which is critical for regular and healthy bowel function. Chervil's mild taste and pleasant fragrance make it easy to use in a spring tonic or as a finishing touch on egg, fish, or poultry dishes. As an added benefit, adding a little chervil makes your dishes both delicious and digestible.
