Thank you very much for your explanation on edible potash (in Jjuu commonly call Batwuak)apart from the health risk mentioned, don't it have any health benefit in the body?.

[@bhodygistwithsraugustaozor8524]

It improves lactation in women who are breastfeeding.
Because of the high sodium content some people use it for food preservation too

[@bhodygistwithsraugustaozor8524]

Thanks for your questions

[@bhodygistwithsraugustaozor8524]

I have learnt another way to call edible potash. I guess the jjuu is the southern part of Kaduna state.
Thanks for sharing

[@jayjee735]

Potash, rather has higher potassium rather than sodium. Hence the name. It cooks food quicker due to the higher pH and therefoe uses less energy to cook food making it cheaper and quicker to release nutrients in food that would require lots of digestion.
