Remember having to drink the water from mashed bitter leaves to cure bed wetting loool grin grin grin
Bed wetter tongue .


Ours was for stomach ache with a little salt added inside. Did you ever mash them with your palms or someone did it for you? If you did, did you taste your palm afterwards?

Now that you said squeezing the bitter part before eating it or cooking it before eating makes it less potent, what else do you want us to eat it?

Eat it raw like a goat

One thing to be noted is that your health is worth sacrificing few minutes of bitter drugs for, squeez the water and drink and use the left over for soup

Oh! Nice suggestion there.. Thanks smiley

But don't you think there should be a gauge for taking it, I suppose too much of it might cause another problem?

The topic is so good it was posted twice simultaneously.


Yeah, bitterleaf, fortunately, happens to be my favorite soup (to go with pounded yam of course).
If you've never tasted bitterleaf soup garnished with snails, dried fish, fresh fish with pounded yam, then I'm sorry you've either not 'eaten real food' or not truly from Nigeria. No two things involved!

Rubbish - If you've never eaten 'Bitterleaf' laced with Beef, Goat, Chicken, Okpoloko with Garri and three bottles of 'Star' then your life was never worth living!

Bitterleaf is good but how do I take it in? If I get it capsule that can be swallowed and pressed with not-too-sugary orange juice then i would love it.

Some time is 2015 my Brother had Arthritis with Daily intake of Bitter Leaf everyday for sometime he was cured.

I had blurred vision too in 2015 and my Brother introduced me to same bitterleaf that cured him and my blurred vision disappeared.

Note: we usually take A full tea cup of mushed bitterleaf or chew about 3matured leaves A day for some period of time.

Too much of it is not good.

One mystery I may never be able to solve is my 8-year old cousin's love for bitter leaf 'juice'. He not only drinks it at his own behest, he asks for it; he gets really excited when it's extracted for him; he says it's not bitter to him; and he says he loves it.

undecided
I can't understand it.

Don't mind me op, felt like voicing out my concerns.

Thanks Op, you just shared my thoughts about BITTER LEAVES. My grandfather trained me with it and It's one of the secret of my healthly status. Up till now am still eating it. Infact, I have the tree planted in my compound.

I remember one of my folk song: "Ewuro lagba igi, ewuro lagba igi, gbogbo igi bowo fewuro, ewuro lagba igi."
