Gd morning, what happened to your nairaland profile? Was it banned? If so, what made it so despite your positive contributions to nairaland?

Good morning to you, too. smiley

Yes, it was banned. . . . I was accused of by-passing the word filter.
Whether that is the actual reason for the ban or not, is anatha story. grin
You alright?

There have been many research on this fruit. I remember back in the old country we use to eat this thing for fun and we drink the juice too like it was just any regular. Learning about this recently is very interesting. I read it form this site about the supplements and side effects. Read more one some of the Health benefits of Graviola.

I'm quite sure what u had in maiduguri was a Custard apple plant. It seems closely related to the Soursop.
