Good evening natural medicine community is good to be here again.
Isn't it amazing that something you have been using for a long time happened to be medicine that you didn't know you like it because you grow up to see your mother used it whenever she cooked and this thing you have used it for a decade but it doesn't occur to you to make a research for it but suddenly it becomes disturbing that you want to go all out to know the important of the thing that you have been using all this while. And it happens that your curiousness turn out to give you the best result meaning That you didn't make mistakes of making use of this fruit rather you do your body good for eating it but all this while you didn't know that you have been eating drugs in form of food.. as in you are eating your food as medicine but unknown to you hahahaha...
Today something happen to me it was as if am just seeing this for the first time in my life but this is what I've use for a very long time. So while I was searching for this fruit in the market I started asking myself what is it about this thing that is making me trek this long to inside market am I okay. Finally I saw it so I couldn't hide my feelings again i asked the old woman that sell it mma If you know where I trek from to come in search of this small thing and is not cost is just 50 naira something so the woman answered me then you know what is good and right so I ask her why?
She said you think you are buying nonsense right? Let me tell you if you didn't know, know this from today that this fruit is medicine to the body it very good for you when you put it in any of your food it normalize your blood pressure, if you have stomach upset the moment you eat it that abnormality become normal, for mothers that put to birth new the moment you use it to prepare pepper soup, it help in flushing out the unwanted blood from the newly nursing mother and keep the system in a perfect state finally this fruit is good for migraine headache and many more which she can't mention all at that moment. And I say what? All this while I've been eating this and I don't know all this hmmmmm. I told her that the only food I used this fruit to cook is banga and white soup because of the taste and aroma that it produces and this is the reasons I love it. She said I should try it with pepper soup and thank her later one of this days I will try the pepper soup. but today the really essence I went in search of this fruit "uyakyak" was because I wanted to prepare banga soup and it always one of my best condiment here if I cook this soup without uyakyak, the soup is incomplete for me.
Preparation of banga soup.
This is eyop. Palm kernel fruit already cook I want to pound it with this local mortar.

Filter it into the pot.
This is the half part of the uyakyak I cut . And wash it
Break it into three part add it with the almost done soup.
Soup Done ready for consumption.
That is it very easy to prepare
It taste very good it does not hurt nor harm the moment I discovered this good side of it I told myself that I'm going to post it here in natural medicine for every one to see... it is called 'Uyakyak' I don't know how it is called in English but the above name is how we called it here.
It is medicinal, good for health it also heals if you have opportunity to get it, eat it with the mind that you are eating medicine. So all this while I've been eating rightly but I didn't know till today thank God I asked her and am happy I know it function now this means I will not miss it for anything.
