Studies have identified the consumption of cardamom as a way of preventing cardiovascular disease. The micronutrients in it are believed to reduce the abundance of fats in the body and help control regular heartbeat. The reduction of these harmful fats can also stimulate metabolism and aid weight loss. Cardamom has also been shown to reduce harmful cholesterol in the blood. In addition, there is evidence that the manganese in it can regulate blood sugar levels, which may assist in the prevention and management of Type 2 diabetes and may also assist with weight loss.
