What are the benefits of chewing cardamom after every meal?

Cardamom (elaichi) contains active compounds such as cineole, limonene, terpinene, and flavonoids that help in reducing inflammation, improving digestion, and freshening breath, according to Dr Manjusha Agarwal. Chewing cardamom after every meal also benefits heart and metabolic health. However, consuming large amounts of cardamom or taking it frequently may cause stomach discomfort.
