Cardamom: Tiny Pod, Big Benefits
Green cardamom is one of the most expensive spices by weight — and one of the most medicinally interesting.

Green cardamom is one of the most expensive spices by weight. The seeds have several medicinal properties used in traditional medicine for centuries.
Cardamom has been used for thousands of years to help with digestion, often mixed with other spices. It is also a strong antioxidant plant.
I add it to morning tea, to rice while it cooks, or grind it into desserts. A little goes a long way.
— Dr. Basma El Homasany
