As simple as It is to prepare peppersoup,one may be tempted to think it really does not have any health benefit...on the contrary it does especially the Nigerian Peppersoup. Here are some benefits:
- The Nigerian Peppersoup is richly made with herbs and spices,some of which are used in traditional medicine. E.g the African nutmeg (Monodora tenuifolia) popular known as Ehuru by the igbos, Anyim efik by the Efiks and Ewoun by the ibibios. It is a very aromatic seed which is first roasted to release its flavours and then grinded into a powdered form before adding into the soup. Research confirmed that Ehuru helps in treating diarrhoea,it's seeds relieves constipation and controls/heals uterine hemorrhage in new mums.
