Thanks for sharing this. Recently I started appreciating our ancestors for their wisdom. Though they had no scientific backing for most of their claims, they sure were naturally scientific, like something ingrained in them. Grandma never liked white garri, never ate it. She will tell you it's 'poison'. For somebody that never saw the four walls of a school, now that's awesome. I remember she would always eat her rice cooked in coconut water and today, science has again proved that coconut oil reduced the starch in rice by about 50%. Kudos to our ancestors and kudos to you for this eye-opener.
