Elettaria cardamomum
La reine des épices utilisée en médecine ayurvédique et unani pour les affections digestives et la fraîcheur de l'haleine.
Cardamom (Elettaria cardamomum), known as the 'queen of spices,' is traditionally used in Ayurvedic and Unani medicine for digestive conditions, bad breath, and respiratory infections. Its primary active compounds include cineole, alpha-terpinyl acetate, linalool, and alpha-terpineol, which contribute to its carminative, antimicrobial, expectorant, and antispasmodic properties. Evidence is limited (Grade C) but supports its use as a carminative and antimicrobial agent.
Cardamom's pharmacological effects are mediated through its volatile oil constituents, particularly 1,8-cineole and alpha-terpinyl acetate, which act as smooth muscle relaxants via calcium channel blockade and anticholinergic pathways, explaining its antispasmodic and carminative actions. The monoterpenes linalool and alpha-terpineol exhibit antimicrobial activity by disrupting bacterial cell membranes and inhibiting quorum sensing. Additionally, cineole enhances mucociliary clearance and exhibits expectorant effects through stimulation of bronchial secretions.
