What is it?:
Cardamom (Elettaria cardomomum, Amomum cardamomum) is the seed of the perennial tropical plant in the ginger (Zingiberaceae) family (aka Bai dou kou in Chinese herbalism)... It is a drying, aromatic herb that has been used since ancient times to dispel dampness from the digestive tract and addresses a variety of digestive complaints such as:
- a feeling of heaviness or edema
- loose stools/diarrhea
- poor appetite
- nausea & vomiting
- acid reflux
- abdominal distention, gas, bloating, and pain
- chest fullness or an oppressive sensation in the chest
Cardamom is also useful to address food stagnation (i.e. food that is poorly digested) and as such is a great herb to use if you have, say, overeaten at a holiday dinner and have indigestion, belching, acid regurgitation, etc...
What is it good for:- digestive complaints mainly due to incomplete digestion
- chest fullness or an oppressive sensation in the chest
- feelings of heaviness (e.g. in the limbs or extremities)/edema
What else you might like to know:
It is important to understand that herbs work by restoring balance to the body. This means that you usually have to take an herb or a formula for a longer period of time than you would with pharmaceuticals in order to get results-- usually at least a month, and often times longer than that... it all depends on the individual and the nature of the ailment being addressed.
