Joint pain is often caused by increased accumulation of uric acid and purines in the body. When purines break down into uric acid and cannot be eliminated properly, crystals begin to form in the joints—causing gout, swelling, and severe pain.
The good thing is that a simple kitchen remedy—green cardamom—can reduce this problem to a great extent. In Ayurveda, it has been called a detox spice, which helps in removing extra purines and uric acid from the body.
Let us know how green cardamom is beneficial in joint pain and how to consume it.
How does green cardamom flush purines?
The diuretic properties present in green cardamom help the body to produce more urine. Due to this, the toxins, excess salt and purines accumulated in the body are removed with urine.
These benefits are available:
Uric acid level reduces

Relief from pain and stiffness

Joint pain increases not only due to uric acid but also due to inflammation. Elements like cinole and limonene in green cardamom reduce inflammation.
