Cardamom is a perennial bush 2.4m, with smooth green cane-like stems and large dark green leaf blades sheathed at the base. The flower is yellowish with a purple lip, succeeded by the fruit and dark brown seeds.
The harvested seed, having culinary and herbal uses, is aromatic and considered an aphrodisiac in the Indian culture. It is frequently added to coffee in Saudi Arabia and curries in India.
One of Cardamom's main uses is as a digestive aid due to its soothing and antispasmodic properties. Studies have shown it may help with any digestive condition.
When you take the cardamom you can either take it on its own or add it to a little water or juice. Full instructions come on the bottle.
