Aframomum corrorima
Plante endémique d'Éthiopie utilisée dans la médecine traditionnelle et culinaire.
Aframomum corrorima, known as Ethiopian cardamom, is an endemic spice used in Ethiopian traditional medicine for digestive disorders, fever, and infections. Modern research highlights its carminative, antimicrobial, and anti-inflammatory properties, attributed to active compounds such as cineole, geraniol, and alpha-terpinene. Evidence is limited (Level C), but traditional use supports its safety and efficacy at culinary doses.
The essential oil components, particularly 1,8-cineole and geraniol, exhibit antimicrobial activity by disrupting bacterial cell membranes and inhibiting quorum sensing. Anti-inflammatory effects are mediated through inhibition of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) and nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB) pathways. Carminative action likely involves relaxation of gastrointestinal smooth muscle via modulation of calcium channels and direct spasmolytic effects.
