Cardamom Therapeutic Grade™ Essential Oil
Cardamom Essential Oil (Elettaria cardamomum) is a member of the ginger family of botanical plants. Cardamom has historical uses that include internal consumption to protect the stomach and inhalation to invigorate the mind.* Cardamom has also been used traditionally to alleviate mental fatigue and nervous strain, rheumatism, cardiac disorders, epilepsy, spasms, digestive, intestinal and urinary issues as well as menstrual irregularities.
*Modern scientific research has not yet validated these traditional claims.
Cardamom has been called "Grains of Paradise" since the Middle Ages and has been used medicinally by Native American Indian Healers. Cardamom is also mentioned in one of the oldest known medical records, the Ebers Papyrus, an ancient Egyptian list of 877 prescriptions and recipes, which dates from the 16th century BC.
Cardamom essential oil can be used for muscle spasms, as an expectorant and as an anti-parasitic. Cardamom is also a natural anti-bacterial agent, useful for lung and sinus infections, indigestion, nausea, senility, and headaches. Its fragrance is uplifiting and refreshing.

*These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration. These products are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease. Don't expect the same results unless you are using Young Living Therapeutic Grade™ Essential Oils and supplements. Also each person is unique and different in chemistry and toxicity levels, as well as emotionally and spiritually, so an oil that is suggested for an issue may not work as well as another. If a change is not apparent within three minutes, try another oil.
