Cardamom is a powerful healer; in India, she is considered the queen of spices. You've probably already supported yourself with cardamom through various dishes over the years, as she has made her way into recipes all over the world, from the Middle East to Northern Europe.
Famed for her unmistakable sweet yet smoky flavor, cardamom has also made her way into our Warm Feelings® saffron latte. Although we love her flavor profile, the real reason she was one of our draft picks was her insane healing properties.
Like many of nature's master healers, cardamom is not a one-hit-wonder; she supports many of our body's complex internal systems, from digestion to dental to emotional balance. Read on for details on a few of her royal duties and how she devotes herself to our health.
Mood Stabilizer
The use of cardamom extract has been proven to decrease anxious behaviors. Many attribute this to its high antioxidant quality, which can balance the emotional body.
Heart Healing & Detoxification
Cardamom’s high levels of antioxidants make it an amazing support for cardiac health. It has also been demonstrated to remove toxins from the blood.
Oral Health
Cardamom is often used as a dental healer for the fresh-mouth feeling it produces. Due to its antimicrobial properties, it actually heals infections and can prevent cavities.
Congestion & Cold
Not only does cardamom treat the symptoms of cold and flu, but it actively reduces excess mucus from your system.
Digestion Support
Literally used for thousands of years as a digestion aid, research also shows that cardamom supports and heals our digestive system — and can even treat stomach ulcers.
As we said, the queen of spices is a multi-talented leader in spice medicine. If you need some extra support in the areas above, organic cardamom powder is a key ingredient in our Warm Feelings® saffron latte.
