Antioxidants in Spices: The 9 Ingredients Inside Fika Spice

The Antioxidants in Every Ingredient of Fika Spice

A Closer Look at the Plant Compounds Behind the Blend

Fika Spice is crafted from nine thoughtfully selected spices, each naturally containing a unique set of plant-based compounds. These compounds—often referred to as antioxidants—are widely studied for their role in helping the body manage everyday oxidative stress as part of a balanced diet.

Rather than relying on a single ingredient, Fika Spice brings together a diverse spectrum of naturally occurring compounds, creating both depth of flavor and a broad antioxidant profile.

Cinnamon (Ceylon)

 

Ceylon cinnamon contains naturally occurring compounds such as cinnamaldehyde, cinnamic acid, and polyphenols. These compounds contribute to its warm, smooth flavor and its role as a source of antioxidant compounds in the diet.

 

Cocoa

Cocoa is known for its concentration of flavanols, including epicatechin and catechin, along with procyanidins. These compounds are part of the polyphenol family and contribute to cocoa’s rich antioxidant profile.

Vanilla Bean

Vanilla contains vanillin and other naturally occurring phenolic compounds that contribute both aroma and antioxidant activity.

Ginger

Ginger provides compounds such as gingerols, shogaols, and zingerone, which are naturally present and contribute to its distinctive flavor and antioxidant properties.

 

Nutmeg

Nutmeg contains naturally occurring compounds including myristicin, eugenol, and additional phenolic compounds.

 

 

Turmeric

Turmeric is a source of curcuminoids, including curcumin, which are widely studied plant compounds found naturally in the spice.

 

Cardamom

Cardamom contains aromatic compounds such as cineole, linalool, and terpinyl acetate, along with naturally occurring flavonoids.

 

Cayenne

Cayenne pepper provides capsaicin and naturally occurring carotenoids, which contribute both color and antioxidant activity.

 

Clove

Clove is one of the most concentrated sources of certain antioxidant compounds, including eugenol, as well as gallic acid and caffeic acid.
