title_body: coffee with cardamom
upvoted_answer: WebMD does list some negative side-effects when taking cardamom.  Looks like cardamom has health benefits too. 
  
  But I have a suggestion (gleaned from the back of my jar of cardamom pods). Instead of using a spoonful of ground cardamom, consider getting cardamom pods, squeezing 2 or 3 of them to crack them a little bit and placing those in your coffee cup.  It definitely augments the taste of the coffee in the positive direction, plus you're not eating ground cardamom.
