Something must kill a Bini man.

So much ignorance here and people proud of their ignorance.
No wonder we are at the lowest level of life expectancy in this world.

motymop:
There is no evidence that bead is dangerous to your health.

Isn't the bread ingredients almost similar to what they use in making pizza dough.

So pizza dough is good for you
So much ignorance on this forum😅

Two of the biggest causes of killer diseases in Nigeria are bread and rice.

Nigerian bread is particularly unhealthy - they use excess magerine, salt, sugar etc.

Magerine is damaging to heart health. Sugar and salt are not good either. Then add white flour, and you get all the recipes for diabetes, then high blood pressure, then blocked arteries (leading to stroke and heart attack), then once you are put on the powerful drugs doctors prescribe for these serious diseases, and you use them for long enough, the drugs starts affecting the person's organs.

So from diabetes, the person ends up with damaged kidney etc

All because of excessive eating of foods like bread and rice.

The way Nigerians have taken to bread and rice in the past 20 years is creating a big health problem, but people don't even know.

No I cant stop, thats why I balance with groundnut and Pepsi

It’s rice you people should worry about.

Even bread in Nigeria is not safe to eat, if truly Nigeria wants to stop terrorism business, start donating breads to terrorist zones

I've not eaten bread for almost 2 months now

Even worse.

Bread on its own is a terrible processed food. Now, you add one of the worst things that an adult can ingest, a soft drink, hmm.

No adult above the age of 30 should eat this combo more than once a month, if at all.

The bad thing about these harmful foods is their almost irreversible negative health impact often doesn't show up for 20 years or more.

By the time it shows up, the person may then have to be on medication for the rest of their life.

It's better to start making good choices about food early in one's life.

Onetechnews:
For many of us, bread is not just food. It’s comfort, it’s joy, it’s memory. Think about that first aroma of freshly baked agege bread in the morning; soft, warm, with steam still rising when you break it. Or the way you pair it with beans, butter, or even a bottle of cold Coke. Bread in Nigeria is not just a meal, it’s an experience. It fills the stomach, but more than that, it fills the heart.

But here’s the part we don’t like to talk about: that same bread, those same wheat snacks we crave every day, puff-puff, meat pie, doughnuts, might be the reason some people are constantly in pain without even knowing why.

This is where gluten allergy comes in.

What Exactly is Gluten?

Gluten is a protein found in wheat, barley, and rye. It’s what gives bread its stretch and softness. That chewy feel in meat pie crust or that fluffy pull of agege bread? That’s gluten at work. For many, it’s harmless. But for others, their body treats gluten like an enemy.

When someone with a gluten allergy or intolerance eats food with gluten, their system reacts badly. It’s like their body is saying, “This thing you’re eating is not good for me,” and it fights back.

Signs Your Body May Not Like Gluten

The painful part is, most people keep on eating bread and snacks without realizing their body is giving them warning signs. If you’ve ever noticed these after eating bread or wheat foods, it might not be “ordinary stomach trouble”:

Frequent bloating: that uncomfortable swelling that makes you loosen your belt.

Stomach pain or cramps after eating bread or snacks.

Unexplained tiredness, even when you’ve had enough rest.

Skin rashes or itching that come and go.

Constant headaches you can’t explain.

Diarrhea or constipation that seems to happen regularly.

These are your body’s way of waving a red flag.

The Emotional Battle of Giving Up Wheat

Let’s be honest, it’s not easy. Imagine someone telling you to stop eating bread. For many Nigerians, that’s like taking away a small part of daily joy. It’s not just food — it’s the smell that reminds you of mornings in Lagos, the taste that brings comfort after a stressful day.

But if your health is paying the price, it becomes a tough choice: continue enjoying bread for a few minutes or protect your body for a lifetime.

What You Can Do If You Suspect Gluten Allergy

Pay attention to your body: If you always feel sick after eating bread or wheat-based food, don’t ignore it.

See a doctor: Get tested. Sometimes it’s not just “indigestion,” it could be celiac disease (a severe form of gluten allergy).

Try alternatives: Today, there are gluten-free flours like rice flour, cassava flour, and even oat flour. You can still enjoy snacks, but with healthier options.

Educate yourself: Read food labels. Many packaged foods contain hidden gluten.

Final Thoughts

Food is joy, but health is peace. Bread will always hold a special place in our hearts, but for some people, it may come at too high a cost. If your body keeps crying out after every bite, maybe it’s time to listen.

At the end of the day, no meal should steal your peace or make you live in constant pain. Protect your health, because that’s the true comfort you deserve.
A question for you can you stop eating because you have allergy to it?

I have not eaten bread since the beginning of this year and will never eat it again until I see the real bread and not this poison we called bread in Nigeria.

what about the groundnuts?

correctguy101:
I fit count the number of times I dey eat bread in a year. Wetin I go dey use that bland thing do. I've eaten different types. But they're almost always useless without adding something else and I no even get their time.

Oh, I like my younger sister bread, but she hardly ever gives me free bread. She expects her elder brother to pay. After all I've done for her.

Very wicked woman., 🤧

Before nko! Pay biko.
You want to run down her business?
At least, I believe she sells to you at a discount.

After all, if elder brother don't support your business, who will? 😌

Bread is a way of life..


Just finished one boku like this like this.

Onetechnews:
wow, that is good to hear.

I have high blood sugar that is been controlled by diet.i have stop bread.soft drinks.pasta.indomie.infacr anything that is processed or passed through a factory tend to raise blood sugar far more than natural carbohydrates.that you cannot give something up is not when problem start.

If you're a man foods like bread, and soft drinks are also big time penis killer.

May be when in your early 20s, youthful exuberance will give you a hard male organ even if bread and softdrinks is a big part of your diet.

Howeever, if you keep eating the same way in your 30s and 40s, your penis will start being as hard as cotton wool.

That is when you see today's men start getting desperate drinking one dangerous herb after another, or some fake medicines.

If you're a married woman, you will do well to discourage your husband from eating like he is still a 16 year old.

People should go back to eating yam, beans and other natural foods.

Most foods that have gone through a factory or manufacturing process are not good for you, whether you're a male or female.

The other day, out of interest, I looked on the back of the packet of one of the most eaten foods in Nigeria, and there were 11 artificial chemicals (they call it additives in order not to scare buyers) listed! Most people don't even bother to check these things.

I noticed a serious body tiredness and nausea when I ate a fresh bread that tastes almost like floor and milk. I gave it out. Seriously I want to get rid of this bot belly. I want flat healthy tummy

I don't even lyk it sef until

you likely have pre diabetes or diabetes. Abeg go for blood test

Bread make sense to me die, but if e dey threaten my life, I go leave am o. Life dey sweet pass.

Yes, I can. However, I advise against advertising Agege bread. If you had ever been to the bakeries where it's made, and see how it's prepared, you would never eat it.

Why is it that it is only in our generation that people are preaching against bread? Bread has been there from the day of the Israelites.

Wetin sef!

Bread is refined flour( carbohydrates) , then we eat it with bean ( another carbohydrate) plus coke ( another carbohydrate)

Some do bread with tea, sugar, akara. All carbohydrates. We just dey kill ourselves as Nigerians

If ones starts following all these health warnings it means the person will starve to death because virtually every food has its disadvantages
