This recipe is easy to make in the morning and features Cardamom which has been shown to be effective against Staph bacteria that have shown resistance to antibiotics.  These are a normal member of our digestive flora but can be out of balance for some.  While cardamom is not the most potent of the microbial modulating herbs I feel it’s the most tasty.  It has also been shown to reduce nausea, just like ginger.  All the plants are my favourite plants.

This recipe is great if you can tolerate blackberries.  If you cannot please consider using more spinach, soaked blended chia and Medicine Flower Blackberry Extract.  Make it work for you, keep the cardamom, get crafty.
