1. Ka Hōʻuluʻulu Manaʻo o Aframomum Melegueta

ʻO kaʻAframomum Melegueta, kamaʻāina no ʻApelika Komohana, he ʻala cardamom a he ʻono pepa. Ua hoʻohana nui ʻia ia ma ke ʻano he pani i ka wā i kakaikahi ai ka pepa ma ʻEulopa i ke kenekulia 13, a ua kapa ʻia ʻo "hua o ka lani" no ka mea, ua manaʻo ʻia he lokomaikaʻi mai ka lani mai.

He ʻano inoa like ʻole ko Aframomum Melegueta e like me nā grains of paradise, ʻo Atare (ma ka ʻōlelo Yoruba), chitta (Hausa), a i ʻole Guinea pepper, he hua hoʻokahi me nā mana ho'ōla he nui a ʻo kona mau pono i ke kanaka me he mea lā ʻaʻole pau.

Ua hoʻohana ʻia ʻo Aframomum melegueta (Nā Hua o Paradaiso) no ka mālama ʻana i nā maʻi lele e like me nā maʻi ʻōpū mimi i hoʻokumu ʻia e Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Enterococcus faecalis, Staphylococcus saprophyticus, Proteus mirabilis, methicillinresistant Staphylococcus aureus, Salmonella spp, a me Shigella spp. Hōʻike ia i kekahi mau manaʻolana i ka kaohi ʻana i ka momona-mass ma nā dosis i hiki ke hoʻopau ʻia i nā huahana meaʻai a me nā hui lāʻau lapaʻau.

2. Wahi Hoʻolaha

ʻAframomum MeleguetaʻO （Paradise Pepper）, nona ka inoa maoli ʻo African Cardamom, i ʻike ʻia hoʻi ʻo Peppercorn, Guinea Pepper, Melegueta Pepper, Paradise Pepper, a i ʻole Alligator Pepper, he lau nahele mau loa ia o ka ʻohana Zingiberaceae. He ʻōiwi ia no nā ʻūpā kahakai o ʻApelika Komohana. Wehe i nā pua poni, ʻano pū, hua mai i nā ʻōpuʻu 5-7 cm ka lōʻihi a loaʻa nā hua ʻulaʻula-ʻeleʻele. Pepa, no ka mea ua lilo ia i pani pepa mua. I kēia manawa he mea maʻamau wale nō ia i ka ʻai kūloko ma ʻApelika. He mea ʻala ʻē aʻe ia no ke Alanui Silika i nalowale mai ka meaʻai Eurasian hou, akā hoʻohana mau ʻia ma nā ʻāpana o ʻApelika Komohana a me ʻApelika ʻĀkau, a he mea kūʻai nui ia ma nā ʻāpana o ʻAitiopa. ʻO ke kālekama ʻApelika, he ʻōiwi ia no nā wahi kahakai o ʻApelika komohana, me he mea lā ua hoʻohana ʻia ma kahi kokoke i Ghana hou i ka wā mua a ua hoʻouna ʻia ma hope i kekahi mau wahi awa ma ʻApelika hikina a i ʻole ma ke kahakai Mediterranean e kālepa ma ke Alanui Silika. ʻO ka mea ʻala, ka mea i makemake nui ʻia i ka kuke ʻana o ʻEulopa i ka wā mua o ka Renaissance, ua mae mālie mai ka papaʻaina i ke kenekulia ʻumikumamāwalu a laila nalowale mai nā mākeke ʻEulopa, ua pani ʻia e ke kālekama a me nā mea ʻala ʻē aʻe i lawe ʻia mai ʻAsia a puni ka honua.

3. Hoʻolauna ʻia ʻo 6-Paradol

ʻO Paradol, kahi metabolite non-pungent o shogaol ma o ka hoʻemi enzymatic, ua ʻike ʻia he mau hana anti-inflammatory. Hōʻike nā ʻike in vitro o kēia manawa e pili ana nā waiwai inhibitory o 6-paradol i ka mālama ʻana i ka neuroinflammation i loko o microglia i ka hiki ke therapeutic in vivo no ka ischemia cerebral. Loaʻa i ka pono neuroprotective o 6-paradol i ka ischemia cerebral kona hiki ke hoʻohana ʻia i ka mālama ʻana i nā maʻi CNS ʻē aʻe kahi i lilo ai ka neuroinflammation i hiʻohiʻona pathological. Eia kekahi, inā hōʻike ʻia ka 6-paradol he pono i nā maʻi CNS ʻē aʻe, ʻo kona waiwai non-pungent ka pono o nā hopena ʻaoʻao liʻiliʻi ma ka ʻōpū, ʻo ia hoʻi hiki ke lawe ʻia i ka wā lōʻihi, ʻaʻole like me nā mea o ke ginger a i ʻole ka ginger paha 6-shogaol.

6-paradolhe mea antimalarial ikaika loa a he ʻāpana nui ia oʻO Zoluawaihona metabolite.

ʻO 6-Paradol (inoa IUPAC [1-(4-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl) decan-3-one]) he hui phenolic ʻawaʻawa i loaʻa i nā mea kanu o ka ʻohana Zingiberaceae, e like me ke kinikini a me nā hua o ka paradaiso (ʻAframomum meleguetaa i ʻole pepa alligator). E like me ka mea i ʻōlelo ʻia ma kahi ʻē aʻe, ua hōʻike kekahi mau noiʻi i nā hana antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, cytotoxic, anti-hyperlipidaemic, hypoglycaemic, a me nā hana antitumour o nā hui paradol like ʻole i nā ʻano holoholona like ʻole.

4. Hana Huahana

1. Hiki ke hoʻohana ʻia ka Aframomum melegueta extract ma ke ʻano he mea ʻala a me kahi mea ʻono;

2. Hiki ke hoʻohana ʻia ka Aframomum melegueta extract ma ke ʻano he mea hoʻoulu ʻala; no ka mālama ʻana i nā ʻū a me ka bronchitis; anti-rheumatic; no ka dyspepsia;

3. Ua ʻike ʻia ka Aframomum melegueta extract e hoʻoulu i ka pohō kaumaha ma o ka hoʻolaha ʻana i ka metabolism wikiwiki o ke kino;

4. Hiki i ka Aframomum melegueta extract ke hoʻonui i ka hiki ke moekolohe ma ke ʻano he aphrodisiac.
