good, everything must be eaten with caution nowadays, even our crops (generally) are being contaminated with the climate change.

Rubish! Clearly you are not a medical practitioner, you only sell concussion for erectal problems. Facts of what the OP wrote are contained in many medical journals and articles online and at hospitals worldwide. You ought to read them too rather than these usual wash wash medical practices you guys do in Naija!
You must show yourself

Small boy, I never portray myself as a medical practitioner, I am a research scientist. Because this is a faceless forum does'nt mean you should talk anyhow.

Nigerian Doctor took to his twitter handle to warn people of the danger of eating old Groundnuts. According to his tweet, it causes cancer of the liver.

Read full tweets;

I'm just here to remind you that eating old groundnuts can give you cancer of the liver
#aprokodoctor
Old groundnuts contain aflatoxin that causes liver cancer. This toxin is produced by a fungus that infects old improperly stored groundnuts.
Don't let your village people win.
Throw that ancestral groundnut away.
Groundnuts should be stored in airtight containers.
Preferably in the refrigerator with constant electricity for about 3 months.
But as we no dey get light like that...
The moment something feels wrong about it. Discard

Mouldy true but the "mouldiness" in most cases is not visible to the nakedd eye. The other thing is the "moulds" may have long since died but the toxin persists.It can be found in Cassava and cassava products, corn and corn products ,rice pepper etc

And not just "local" alcohol it can be found in "international" alcohol if quality control is poor
Poorly stored grains..may be a better term yeah noted

I think you are talking for the sake of talking. Mouldy means contaminated with mould or fungi spores simple.


such contamination can occur from harvest and so is not a storage issue. The mould spores is present in the soil and contaminates most harvests. In fact the air we breathe is full of mould spores


If the peanuts are harvested with the mould then what has poor storage got to do with anything.
