Food › Re: 3 Affordable Protein Foods To Consider As Price Of Beans Soars by descarado: 8:13pm On Jun 12, 2024
[quote author=Afonja007 post=130443157][/quote]Depends on the type of beans.
Ours has more carb but fair amount of protein.
For a country that don't eat protein, that's why we see it as a big deal.
If I eat mushroom,bean sprout and eggs, that's more than enough for me. I will rather eat tofu( from soybean), thats the beans with highest protein content among the beans family.
Chickpea is full of protein and very versatile as a dish and so cheap but Nigerians will not go for it.

Nigeria lack nutritionists so we end up eating to fill the stomach instead of for health.

An average adult need not less than 45g of protein everyday.

You can get half from 2 eggs.
Egg is one food that contain all the AA youe body needs plus trace elements.
An adult can eat 2 eggs in the morning and is full.
It's just that we eat to fill the stoma h and eat with our eyes.

2 eggs with a cup of tea( not hot cocoa) or coffee can carry you till mid afternoon.
And it doesn't digest quickly as is not carbohydrate so your insulin do not feed on it. Less insulin, less hunger.
Feeding is pure maths.
When we understands it, we live long and eat less.

This picture here is guinea corn and not millet. It’s Guinea corn that has more protein and not millet
That is red millet or finger millet. I use it or the yellow one.
There are more than 10 types of millet

Fm007:
For children under 5yr. I have used several antibiotics bt it keep coming back
Why are u giving antibiotics for tonsillitis?
U want to kill your child?

Any small thing, antibiotics.
Google is there for you if you can't go to your doctor. It goes away on its own. If your child has high fever, you can go to hospital but if just for the discomfort, children's para will do. It's caused by flu or cold so try and make the environment cold and flu free.

Stop abusing antibiotics pls.

The ones that will gradually go back are those that are mature already and have experienced the corruption, then they learn and find out there is no gain there.

But after such repentance, they have lost the value men held in high esteem. There will always be consequences to our actions, that even repentance will not save us from.

It is like telling a promising young man to wife a prostitute because she has repented. Most men won't. They will applaud her repentance though. Prevention will always be better than cure.

Furthermore, modern culture is like a strong tide that is difficult to swim against. Most impressionable young girls will first get corrupted, and the number of the ones getting corrupted is like a tsunami to the ones who didn't.

The channel to be discreetly corrupt is in our hands (smartphones). I respect any woman who can resist the urge not to participate in corruption. The temptation to show their ass via manipulatory poses on social media is so strong, I see even Christian women doing it.

You don marry? otherwise, accept my condolence grin
I replied you thinking your post was logical. My bad.
Social media is awesome.
It has made so many act as demigod and judges.

The egotistical nature of a Nigerian man will always manifest. Even those who depend on women for daily need.

Looking at it holistically, it doesn't make any sense to apply to study abroad without considering the financial implications or thinking getting there, you will be able to work to pay fees. People believe the moment they set their foot on foreign soil, there's work waiting for them to do. Three months in a semester might look like a lot of time in a Nigerian university, but abroad, it moves like clock work. And you pay fees every semester. I know because I have been there.
Don't blame the people here.
Have you heard of this before?
Rather, blame your government.
If the government didn't fck up, why did they intervene in some of the cases?

I have gowns like these.
Watch Nigerian movies and see that these are returning back.

Most women like 70% rock natural hair.
They just use wig to cover it as it's mostly difficult to tame.

These aren't cheaper alternatives . They are expensive too.

I had this same problem some time ago too or maybe something similar but it looks the same and with similar symptoms, When you sweat it has a certain odour too.

Bathe with Delta soap, and stop using cream or any kind of skin care product, stay dry too, it will go away.
It has certain odour cos it's dead dry skin.

Not as Nigerian stew. But it’s a similar process of cooking both. Sautéing some onions, peppers, choice of meat and your puréed or cubed pumpkins.

It doesn’t taste like Nigerian stew to me but it’s delicious by itself in its own class.

I don’t really think it’s weird but I get that if someone isn’t used to eating it, might find it difficult to adjust or use it to replace stew.

I personally won’t use it to replace stew. I might try this his method just to see if it’s similar to stew for the sake of experiment grin
You know, in all these,beetroot is still the best combo and alternative.
Just that we don't grow beetroot.
All commercial tomato puree is mixed with beetroot. That's what gives that popping dark red wine colour. And beetroot quantity is usually more.

No. The Ekwulobia-Uga to Akokwa road is different from Awka-Ekwulobia-Orlu-Owerri road whose Ekwulobia-Orlu section became disused because a bridge was not built on Urashi River by the contractor before Buhari military govt struck.
I have never passed the road then.

That is simply dry skin.

That is how dry skin look like.

You get soothing creams and apply on it. No harsh soap,chemicals etc.
You can shower with shower gel without scent.
