A spice among locals for its ability to send your taste buds into a spicy shock when bitten Cardamom is a small seed pod with black seeds inside that extrude its famous sweet fragrance. It is widely used in various meat curries and yellow rice dishes and is further utilized in making desserts or even added to your evening tea for a bit of spice.

As one of the most valued spices in the world alongside saffron and vanilla, cardamom truly lives up to its title as “The Queen of Spice’ with its broad culinary and medicinal uses.

Like the other spices grown in Sri Lanka, the island’s climate and geological formation are one of the most important factors in its unique flavor & taste

Cardamom, sometimes spelled as cardamon or cardamum, is a spice made from the seeds of several plants in the genera Elettaria and Amomum in the family Zingiberaceae.

    Description, Nutrition Contents & Health Benefits 

    As mentioned before, Sri Lanka is not only a paradisiacal island on the earth but also a gift of God. The soil and geological formation are miraculous. The island’s earth is blessed by nature. The tropical climate is ideal for spice cultivation. Sometimes the mother country is different and far away from Sri Lanka for most of the spices, but once those are planted on Sri Lankan earth, the flavors, tastes, and aromas become exceptional. That is one of the main reasons that many buyers and consumers are tempted to buy spices from Sri Lanka.

    Cardamom, sometimes spelled as cardamon or cardamum, is a spice made from the seeds of several plants in the genera Elettaria and Amomum in the family Zingiberaceae. Both genera are native to the Indian subcontinent and Indonesia. The cardamom plant is a perennial herbaceous plant with a pseudo stem and thick, irregular-shaped rhizomes. Dried fruit or cardamom pods are traded as spices.

    Cardamom is well known for its traditional pharmaceutical and food uses. This spice is especially famous for its seed pods with characteristic aroma and taste. Due to its well-established gastronomic value and flavoring properties, cardamom is widely used as a flavoring and spicy ingredient in curries and confectionery products.

    Due to the presence of a wide array of bioactive and volatile components with multiple activities, such as antioxidants, antihypertensive, gastroprotective, and antibacterial, this spice has significant potential for the development of value-added novel and processed functional foods and nutraceuticals.

    Cardamom essential oil has aromatherapy potential and is also useful for the digestive system. The major components present in cardamom essential oils are α-terpinyl acetate, 1,8-cineole, and linalool. This chapter focuses on the nutritional and traditional pharmaceutical aspects as well as the food science applications of cardamom, in particular its essential oil.

    Cardamom –what it contains

    Cardamom is a good source of minerals like potassium, calcium, and magnesium. 100-gram pods contain 1119 mg of this electrolyte. Potassium is an important component of cell and body fluids that helps control heart rate and blood pressure. The human body uses copper for the production of red blood cells.

After 12 weeks, blood pressure levels had significantly decreased to the normal range. The promising results of this study may be related to the high levels of antioxidants in cardamom. The participants’ antioxidant status had increased by 90% by the end of the study. Antioxidants have been linked to lower blood pressure.

    Researchers also suspect that the spice may lower blood pressure due to its diuretic effect, meaning it can promote urination to remove water that builds up in your body, for example around your heart.

    Cardamom extract has been shown to increase urination and decrease blood pressure in rats.

    Cardamom is rich in compounds that may fight inflammation.

    Inflammation occurs when your body is exposed to foreign substances. Acute inflammation is necessary and beneficial, but long-term inflammation can lead to chronic diseases. Antioxidants, found in abundance in cardamom, protect cells from damage and stop inflammation from occurring.

    One study found that cardamom extract in doses of 50–100 mg per kg (23–46 mg per pound) of body weight was effective in inhibiting at least four different inflammatory compounds .

    Another study in rats showed that eating cardamom powder decreased liver inflammation induced by eating a diet high in carbs and fat.

    The use of cardamom to treat bad breath and improve oral health is an ancient remedy.

    In some cultures, it’s common to freshen your breath by eating entire cardamom pods after a meal.

    Even the chewing gum manufacturer Wrigley uses spice in one of its products.

    The reason why cardamom can lead to minty fresh breath may have to do with its ability to fight common mouth bacteria.

    Studies found that cardamom extracts were effective in fighting five bacteria that can cause dental cavities.  Research shows that cardamom extract can reduce the number of bacteria in saliva samples by 54%.

    Cardamom is often used to treat bad breath and is a component of some chewing gums. This is because cardamom might be able to kill common mouth bacteria and prevent cavities.

    Compounds in cardamom may help increase airflow to your lungs and improve breathing.

    One study asked a group of participants to inhale cardamom essential oil for one minute before walking on a treadmill for 15-minute intervals. This group had a significantly higher oxygen uptake compared to the control group.

    Another way that cardamom may improve breathing and oxygen use is by relaxing your airways. This may be particularly helpful for treating asthma.

    Injections of cardamom extract could relax the throat air passage. If the extract has a similar effect in people with asthma, it may prevent their inflamed airways from restricting their breathing and improve their breathing.
