Greetings my fellow Steemians, trust your day is going well. I would like to share my Edikang ikong recipe with you...This soup is peculiar to the people of Akwaibom and Cross river state in Nigeria. it has a lot of health benefits,would share some with you.

There are 2 main Vegetables used to cook it which is Ugwu (Pumpkin leaves) and water leaf.
Ugwu helps your digestive systembbecausevit contains high source of fiber so it helps you go to the toilet thereby reducing constipation.
It's rich in antioxidants which can help in the prevention of cancer.
it also improves your blood, if your blood is low you can make ugwu juice and drink to help increase you blood.

Water leaf has its own benefits suchbas helping in regulation of diabetes. it also promotes good eyesight die to the presence of vitamin a and c.
