All you need to do is cut the pods into pieces, or grind it and add to your
cooking.
However,
for medical purposes, you are to cut few pods into pieces and boil in water for
about 40 minutes. Drink half cup morning and evening for a month. In serious
cases, the pods are ground and mixed with honey or palm kernel oil. Leaves,
roots and bark are also cooked like the fruits and taken twice daily.
