Organ failure is getting too much this generation.
You come online and see so many types of sickness linked to organ failure.
Our government needs a strong hand in monitoring what's coming to Nigerian food market..... Avoid packed food, avoid sugars (sugars are highly poisonous)
Avoid energy drinks and carbonated drinks...drink water and natural youghurt or zobo...

We live a time when wickedness is at it's highest...

You do finish na government you dey call to do wetin?

It's an individual thing o. It's our responsibility to care for ourselves o.

If you check well sef, the government hand dey inside the problems.

With the nonsense big pharma and big industries dey cook, e just be like they want to keep people sick..

Op, it's not only what we eat or drink,it also includes the medicine we use.Some Nigerians are so wicked to the extent they will change the expiry dates on medicine packs,some even go as far to produce fake medicines with popular brand names for unsuspecting patients to consume,just because they wants to make their own money,they are putting the lives of many Nigerians at risk.
Very wicked set of people.

Na wah!
Nigerians are some of the most terrible people on earth.
And what's most shocking?
Most will still ask why the country is the way it is.
The answer stares at us every time we look in the mirror.

Is Zobo safe?

A friend told me it's not.

The fake products plays a major part in this issue and it's sad nothing or little government can do about it. If government decide to work on fake products now, I know one certain region from this country that will start crying "they hate us". I think the best bet for everybody is to know what to consume.

MrPresidon:
No one is talking about the fact that healthy foods have now become a luxury to the common man.

Check this out; a 50cl bottle of zobo is 1k, tigernut 1.5k, same 50cl carbonated drink is #500. Now how do you expect the comon man to be able to afford a healthy lifestyle?

Cook your zobo, eat tigernuts, it helps your system and jaw - double benefits.

I thought by now, FG would have banned sales of those Energy drinks causing kidney failure among Nigerian youths today. I wonder what the Minister of Health is doing, must everything be politics?

I always knew it would come to this, with influx of imported food items and drinks into the country due to systemic failure. It's only a system that makes local production a priority that can survive and thrive, SON, NAFDAC and other health agencies would be able to do their jobs by monitoring the production process of those foods, drugs and drinks consumed in Nigeria, but no, GREED by some people to make quick gains through import made them bastardize the system so they can import junks into Nigeria. Now they have successfully turned the country into a dumping ground for all sorts from Europe and Asia ranging from electronics, food items, hides and skin, poisons killing Nigerians etc.

May God help our greedy brothers to see the damage they are causing through importation, those who worship money and think everything in life is money.

na only greedy brothers dey the movement..... Try dey reason well ....

You are missing my point. Do you know how much a mudu of tigernuts cost Do you think it cost one naira to prepare zobo

On a hot day when I really need some chilled liquid to cool my throat, so I should go to the market and buy zobo and cook by myself when I could have just grabbed an already made one from a seller instead of carbornated drinks which have been made ready for such situation.

Don’t be in a rush to reply someone’s comment when you really do not understand the point they’re trying to make

QuinQ:
But govt can also tax mj and get their share. So...

it will be difficult in a country like ours and they know it.

You must not blame government for everything, it's all about discipline.

I know of a guy who drinks coke everyday, the thing just dey surprise me.

Na rich man for nigeria fit all those stuffs.

You wan tell poor man to avoid sugar! Wetin he go take replace am. Lol.

Death from here is a trasition. There's a worse kind of death called the second death..

Only those whose sins have been atoned for with the blood of Jesus will escape the second death.

Repent of your sins and turn to Jesus Christ today.

His mercy beckons.

Carbonated drinks are slow killers....there was a youthful time if I don't drink one a day, I felt uncomfortable....it's dangerous to try that now.

Eating too much carbs too can break your body down too.

👌👍👍

Even those indomie fro mai shayi,I don't trust it,may contain white maggi

Will the government do everything for you? Personal responsibility also matters, especially when it comes to health and nutrition.

For instance, I have consciously avoided highly processed foods for many years. I do not consume foods like semovita, instant noodles, shawarma, canned products, or packaged dairy products such as tinned milk. My preference has always been for more natural and minimally processed meals.

As people grow older, especially from the age of 40 upward, it becomes increasingly important to pay close attention to diet rather than waiting for medical conditions to appear before making changes. A good principle is to be cautious of foods that appear overly artificial or heavily processed, and instead focus more on natural alternatives.

At the moment, the only processed product I still consume regularly is beer. However, if I find a reliable and hygienic source of fresh palm wine, I would gladly switch to that as well.

Energy drinks are pointless to me. If you don’t exercise daily, where will the drink manufacture energy from? You see athletes hold cans of that tripe before and after competing. The only liquid which goes into their systems is water — water and sugar on grueling days. Their adaptation to their sport of choice is why they best the average human ten times out of ten. Carbonated drinks? I earned the right to consume those. I don’t indulge in any pointless vices like drinking or smoking. Let me enjoy them before I quit. I stopped drinking out of the blue when science revealed that no quantity of the substance is safe for consumption. I can do the same with soft drinks — but sugar is so addictive.
