Today, let’s talk about a spice that’s as comforting as it is powerful, cardamom. Known for its fragrant aroma and warming flavor, cardamom isn’t just a star in chai tea or baked goods. It’s a digestion-friendly spice with a long history in traditional wellness practices.
Cardamom helps stimulate digestive enzymes, ease bloating and freshen breath naturally. Its sweet and slightly citrusy notes add a gentle depth to both sweet and savory dishes, from cozy oat bowls and plant-based puddings to lentil stews and rice pilafs.
This little pod is more than a flavor enhancer, it’s a wellness booster hiding in your spice rack. So next time you want to elevate your meals while giving your digestion a gentle nudge, reach for cardamom and let its aromatic magic do the rest.
Here’s to flavor that loves you back!
I started out over 10 years ago watching Forks Over Knives, decided to “try out” the plant-based meal plan and had shockingly incredible results. I’ve never turned back. I have lost nearly 50 pounds, and that is just one side effect that me, my family, friends and clients have experienced after making the change.
Having been an incredible cook my entire adult life, I started my own personal chef service, NuYu Nourish, to extend my help to others. I interned under a celebrity chef, became a celebrity chef myself and have been expanding my reach and goals ever since! My plan follows strictly and simply those of Dr. Mcdougall, Dr. T. Colin Campbell and Dr. Esselstyn.
