Elaichi or cardamom is one of the most common spices seen in an Indian household.
Not only does it add sweet taste and unique flavour to your dishes, it is also widely used as a natural mouth freshener.
But the humble green pod has a lot more to offer – health wise.
Here are the top eight reasons why elaichi scores high in the list of healthy spices.

. Improves digestion :

Ever wonder why elaichi is a staple addition to saunf after meal? Well, that is because elaichi is carminative in nature and helps speed up digestion.
It also reduces inflammation of the stomach lining, fights heartburn and nausea.
Another added advantage of this spice is that it soothes the mucous membrane, making it function better thereby relieving the symptoms of acidity and an upset stomach.
Moreover, according to Ayurvedic texts it also reduces the air content in the stomach, making it more capable of digesting food efficiently.

. Beats bad breath :

If you have bad breath and have tried every sort of remedy out there, give elaichi a try.
The spice is packed with antibacterial properties, in addition to having a strong flavour and a pleasant smell.
Moreover, since it helps improve your digestive system – which is known to be one of the leading causes of bad breath – it is very effective in weeding out the root cause of the problem.

Tip: Chew on a pod of elaichi after every meal.
You could alternatively drink some elaichi tea every morning to help detoxify and strengthen your digestive system thereby preventing bad breath.

. Relieves acidity :

The essential oils in elaichi strengthen the mucosal lining of the stomach and also increase the amount of saliva you secrete.
When you chew the pod, it releases a slew of essential oils that stimulate your salivary glands which in turn stimulates your stomach lining to work better.
It also improves your appetite and reduces the amount of acidity you experience by imparting a cooling sensation to reduce the burning you feel during an attack of acidity.

Tip: The best way to keep acidity at bay is to avoid sitting right after you have eating; instead walk around a bit while chewing on the elaichi pod and you should feel much better.
To further improve your condition, here are six foods you can eat to keep acidity at bay.

. Alleviates symptoms of respiratory illnesses :

Cardamom increases circulation of blood within your lungs thereby aiding in relieving the symptoms of breathing problems like asthma, cold and cough.
In Ayurveda, elaichi is known as a warm spice, which heats up the body internally, helping in the expulsion of phlegm and relieving chest congestion.

Tip: If you have a cold, cough or a congested chest, elaichi is the best natural remedy to relieve the symptoms.
