Description
Latin Name : Elettaria Cardamomum
- Digestion – Cardamom is related to ginger and can be used in much the same way to counteract digestive problems. Use it to combat nausea, acidity, bloating, gas, heartburn, loss of appetite, constipation, and much more.
- Detoxify – This spice helps the body eliminate waste through the kidneys.
- Diuretic – Part of the reason cardamom is such a good detoxifier is thanks to the diuretic properties. It helps clean out the urinary tract, bladder, and kidneys, removing waste, salt, excess water, toxins, and combating infections too.
- Oral Health – Apart from helping with bad breath, cardamom is used for mouth ulcers and infections of the mouth and throat.
- Cold and Flu – This pungent spice may help prevent and relieve cold and flu symptoms. It’s also used for bronchitis and coughs.
- Blood Pressure – As a diuretic and fiber rich spice, cardamom significantly lowers blood pressure.
- Blood Clots – Cardamom prevents dangerous blood clots by preventing platelet aggregation and the sticking to the artery walls.
- Antioxidant – Many of the vitamins, phytonutrients, and essential oils in cardamom act as antioxidants, cleaning up free radicals and resisting cellular aging.
- Anti-inflammatory – Like ginger and turmeric, its relatives, cardamom has some anti-inflammatory properties that limit pain and swelling, especially in mucus membranes, the mouth, and throat.
If you’re using cardamom to flavour dishes such as stews and curries, add the desired amount to the mixture:. Cardamom also has an affinity with chocolate. A little cardamom goes a long way, though, so use it sparingly.
If used for prolonged time and in large quantities, cardamom might lead to some unexplained allergic reactions. Skin allergy known as contact dermatitis is a popular type of skin rash developed due to over intake of cardamom.
You should consume cardamom consciously if you are following any medicinal course (4). This is so, because some drugs may interact with cardamom adversely and lead to serious health consequences.
