Is it ijebu gari that has this slap taste or delta yellow gari or the normal white gari. It does have some sort of sulphur content which some people react to when drank. Cooking it for eba tends to reduce the allergy strain.

Re: I Eat Dry Gari Everyday. Is This Healthy? by Thereishel: 4:16pm On May 27, 2011
Well, Garium Sulphate (GaSo4) is good but make sure u eat protein with it. Eating it dry is dangerous for ur health, add water; don't eat it too much it contains a lot of sulphate and can affect ur kidney and cause bad eye sight. Gone are the days when we call it SS (Student Saviour) So be carefull!

As long as you are eating the type fermented with palm oil, nothing do you.

If it is the white type, it may still have some hydrocyanic acid (HCN) in it. Suspected to affect the optic nerve of the eye.

In fact HCN has been used to produce poison known to affect humans and rats.

Cassava probably has one of the highest amounts of HCN found in nature and very low levels found in some seeds of fruits like apple.
One reason not to chew the seeds of some fruits when eating them.

And funny enough, someone told me drinking garri occasionally is fine being addicted to with the dry one is one of the signs that yahoo boys or money ritualist have used you as the more garri you eat, the greater their money becomes o, please everyone please come to my rescue cos I can't do without it dry too, even after eating f[/color]ood high in nutrients. Please how do I stop it. [color=#990000]

Garri contain Cyanide acid which may not be good for ur eyes if u eat it dry everyday.

Not when it is the one prepared with palm oil (yellow garri); it's safe.
