Grown in India, the pungent, aromatic seeds of Cardamom (Elletaria cardamonum) contain a large amount of volatile oil that helps stimulate digestion and relieve gas. A mild stimulant, Cardamom is a standard ingredient in curry.

For indigestion, mix 15 pulverized seeds in 1/2 cup of hot water. Add 1 ounce of fresh ginger root and a cinnamon stick. Simmer 15 minutes over low heat. Add 1/2 cup of milk, and simmer 10 more minutes. Add 2 to 3 drops of vanilla, and sweeten with honey.
