According to an American study, cardamom, a plant of Indian origin, could fight against triple negative breast cancer cells. This discovery could enable scientists to look for new ways to fight this kind of cancer, which may develop resistance to the usual treatments.

Cardamom has many natural virtues, including therapeutic properties. According to researchers at the Florida Agricultural and Mechanical University, this plant could help fight against triple negative breast cancer cells. Its effectiveness is attributed to cardamonin, a natural component present in the spice.
