Danger Of Using Broomsticks To Mash Ewedu Revealed by Adeolapower(m): 8:57am On Sep 28, 2017 |
Tn Nigeria their is a common pattern of using broomsticks to match the Ewedu leaves into slimy soup which now has now discouraged by health personnel in the country. The soup is known as Rama ayoyo among Hausa, while the Igbo call it Kerenkere. From the department of medicine UCH Dr. Adegboyega Akere in Ibadan, yesterday advised women and caterers to stop the practice. THE REASON ..... This is because ewedu soup that is mashed with broomsticks could still retain splinters of the broom, however minute. He said that when eaten, the splinters from the broomsticks could get trapped inside the oesophagus or the intestine. Akere disclosed that someone who had eaten the soup containing a tiny piece of broomstick was rushed to the UCH recently. “The broomstick settled in her intestine and did not digest. This resulted in the inflammation of the intestine. “Two days after, the patient complained of severe stomach pains and a CT-Scan revealed that a broomstick was lodging inside her intestine. “A surgical operation was carried out and in less than 24 hours, the patient was on her feet moving about. This clarion call is necessary because ewedu soup is the local soup of people in this part of Nigeria. “The locals prefer it to any other soup; therefore, I will advise them to either blend or grind it on the stone before cooking,” Source credit - https://crownpaste..com/ |
