Cardamom is best known for its stomach-soothing abilities, but it also contains an antiseptic that kills bacteria that can cause bad breath.
Cinnamon may help to reduce A1C, a blood test that reflects your average blood glucose levels and is used to measure risk for diabetes.
Cloves support digestion and have anti-cancer, anti-inflammatory, and immune-supportive benefits.
