Abstract in brief

  • This systematic review and meta-analysis examined whether cardamom supplementation affects blood lipid levels, which are important for cardiovascular health, by analyzing five randomized controlled trials up to March 2019.
  • The findings showed that cardamom did not significantly alter levels of total cholesterol, LDL, or HDL cholesterol, but it did significantly reduce triglyceride levels, suggesting a potential benefit for triglyceride management.
  • More targeted research is needed to confirm these effects, especially studies focusing solely on patients with dyslipidemia and accounting for other lipid-lowering treatments.]

Based on a #SysRev and #metaanalysis by Shekarchizadeh-Esfahanhi et al 2020 although consuming cardamom reduced serum triglyceride levels it did not improve total cholesterol, LDL or HDL. https://t.co/mypx8DKsUA
