carminative agent. Black caraway seed has also been used for its
anti-inflammatory properties.
Coriander Seed
Coriander, Coriandrum sativum, is
a well known spice in kitchens across the world. The traditional
Mexican seasoning, cilantro is grown from coriander seeds. Both
cilantro and coriander are known to have carminative actions.
Cardamom
Cardamom, Elletaria cardamomum, is
another popular spice that is commonly used in many cultures to support
the gastrointestinal tract.
Cumin

cyminum, as a carminative agent for centuries. Today it is
traditionally used in Indian and Mexican cooking and fills the kitchen
with a very distinct smell. Because it has a strong pungent flavor,
modern herbalists often replace cumin with caraway when used as a
carminative agent.

of the most well known natural anti-nausea spices. Medicinally, it has

health and to soothe an upset stomach.
