Health benefits of cardamom
A stimulant and carminative, cardamom is not used in Western medicine
for it own properties, but forms a flavoring and basis for medicinal
preparations for indigestion and flatulence using other substances,
entering into a synergetic relationship with them. The Arabs attributed
aphrodisiac qualities to it (it features regularly in the Arabian
Nights) and the ancient Indians regarded it as a cure for obesity.
It has been used as a digestive since ancient times. A medicinal
(perhaps aphrodisiac) cordial can be made by macerating seeds in hot
water.. - See more at:

She's a survivor of narcissistic head games, and adds bits and pieces taken from her experiences to her stories.
