I Eat Dry Gari Everyday. Is This Healthy? by AmeriNaija(f): 2:45am On Apr 21, 2011
For the past months now, I've been taking dry gari and just eating it.  I;m addicted.   I know it's may be strange but i really like it that way and have tried to stop but find it hard to.  Anyway, I'm wondering if there is any health complications to doing this and also, how much carbs does gari have?  would this hinder me in losing weight? (yes, this may be a stupid question, lol)
i eat about half a cup to 2/3 a cup a day.

Dry garri is highly acidic. When you put the garri in room temperature water, it loses much of its acid. When you put it in hot water, as in eba, it loses almost all its acid. The obvious implication is that if you have no stomach complications, dry garri is fine, but you should cut down on it to reduce your risk of developing such complications. But if you already have stomach complications, such as ulcer, you may be digging your grave already. Stop immediately!
