Cardamom Seed (Elettaria Cardomonum):
Cardamom Seed (Elettaria cardomomum, Amomum cardamomum) is the seed of the perennial tropical plant in the ginger (Zingiberaceae) family that is also known as Bai dou kou in the practice of Chinese Medicine. It is a drying, aromatic herb that has been used since ancient times to dispel dampness from the digestive tract and address 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…
This product is cardamom in liquid form, so you can use the dropper to dispense a little bit into a cup of water or tea (or just take it straight) and it can help alleviate digestive distress. It is also a good herb to use before symptoms of digestive distress appear– take some before a meal to help prep the digestive system to do its job more efficiently.
