Like everything else, too much intake of garri could have side effects.
Garri is made from cassava . . . Cassava is rich in carbohydrate and too much of carb. has side effects.

In this regard, if garri is made from cassava and cassava is a major source of carbohydrates and too much intake of carbohydrates makes you fat, why do people [in Nigeria, for example] that take garri often due to inability to afford better food get thiner instead of fatter? embarassed #Justthinking

@OP: I love garri as well. In fact, it has gotten to the point that my family has started to hide the garri. Too much garri isn't good though--its full of starch. So unless you're a very active person I suggest you cut down on your garri intake. Even I had to cut down on how much garri I eat.
