I feel we are more sedentary than our forefathers were, simply because they were always moving by tending their farms. Even still; they either developed illnesses that became life threatening - hypertension, atherosclerosis or other heart issues due to poor or no medical intervention and some women died in childbirth.

The sooner you wake up and understand that this is a war zone, and identify the tactics of the enemy, the quicker you can develop a strategy to get out of this predicament. I live in Atlanta, and this city is full of dead overweight people who are clueless. You are what you eat. When you put garbage into your mouth you are going to look exactly like garbage, yes and because most people are not conscious then they go to the hospital and ask their doctors for help. Total Madness. If you think Western Medicine is the answer to your health problems, let them “practice” on you. They already told you they have no idea what they are doing. Just practicing. Here is the issue in the Western Hemisphere Today!! We have over 2 billion people who got the shot and the governments are unwilling to investigate excess deaths and sudden deaths in young people. The situation is getting worse by the day. I have two colleagues who died suddenly in their trucks. Both of them had the shots and both these guys were relatively healthy. No autopsy was done. They are simply not doing these any more because they are discovering unusual proteins blocking arteries generated by the spike protein from the shots. If you are in Africa, please return to your traditional foods. Anything being promoted by the World Food Program. US AID, World Bank, Gates Foundation, EU, WHO is not meant to help you. It is designed to destroy you. The sooner you understand that this is a war the better of you will be.

Corn is not indigenous to Africa. There is a reason why certain plants and animals grow in certain places. The introduction of new species into an environment is not evolution, and doing so can be detrimental to that environment.

As an American, though I hear of GMO products in comparison with Organics… but my experience with organics is that they spoil too fast, though I view myself as healthier than others my age… but then I also believe in God and that God has a unique plan for my life.

[@gwendolynfoster8305]

Natural Organic Foods last as long as Almighty God designed them to last. After plants are picked, they begin to die. The decomposition process of plants that are picked during harvest times begins immediately. This is why it is meant for you to either store the food in a natural process by canning, drying or freezing or by eating the food immediately. Genetically Modified Organisms are not what God designed for consumption by humans or animals. If eaten over long periods of time, GMO’s will kill the body. It is important to understand that GMO’s are not designed for your health. They are designed for greedy business men and women to speed up the rate that animals grow so that they may be slaughtered more quickly, to sweeten products in greater batches more cheaply and to increase the shelf life of their food product merchandise so that their products may remain on the shelves for longer periods of time before spoiling!

My Good Child, you are so lucky, that your parents allow you to watch educational programs. Am a little Preschool teacher from Ghana, and this is what I think Africa has many problems. However, I don't feel over consumption of corn is a one of them. I googled life expectancies 2023. Nigeria that eats less corn 61.79 years. Ghana that eats a lot of corn 64.94 years. You claim in your post that Botswana and South Africa eat lots of corn too. Botswana 69.86 years, South Africa 64.88 years. I feel the main problem with corn, is Corn Syrup. In Ghana, overly processed junk foods from the west are expensive and considered luxury, so are not eaten as much.

Mindsets need to be reconsidered. Too many people have animalistic desires they think they can hide. Speaking against something is the actual problem… to be “against” is where they got most of you… when in actuality… each one, no matter who else you blame or point fingers at… it is Jes Us… who are collectively practicing such weakness, by collectively taking the “easy” path allowing some other nation and race to influence you all based on your obvious desires to fit in and belong. Still today… many “black” men are well groomed, conformed, and lost… and the women lost their way of femininity, and true essence of being immaculate. The Dictator spent over 400 plus years overgrooming the dark-skinned men, while raping the women. Such times have been called, MidEvil (Medieval). Still trying to be politically correct, but yet falling short in the Eyes of God! According to Bob Marley…”Many more will have to suffer… many more will have to die.” According to Nikolai Tesla… “Man’s greatest downfall is… Eating.” Worse yet, it’s when the majority think they Rule… when many are called… Only FEW chosen! They’ve tricked you all with simple word as “bread”… which really meant the “Breath.” One Lov Everytime!! 💚💛❤️♾️

Let me share what I've been thinking. The risk of heart disease from eating beef as recorded in Europe and the US does not seem to correspond with that in Nigeria.

You are so right,the earlier we get up from our deep sleep,the better.. I'm a vegan,I have study some much about food that I don't put any food in my mouth without knowing whats is going to do in my body. Eat soul food not flesh food. 80% of our illness comes from what we eat.

[@dominicukpe-ye4ip]

Good job we love it absolutely fantastic narrative

[@StarrGoddess77]

As a Southern African my dad and grandparents used to tell me that “corn” was never their staple food, but I want to argue that we also have a diverse menu we eat many grains. And eating Corn meal before it’s processed and bleached (that white white mealie meal) is very healthy because its nutrients have not been stripped from it. Just food for thought. And too much of something no matter how healthy it might be is bad for you.

[@AfricaToday1]

I like that, thanks dear

[@abisaiamatalo2769]

You are right. Bantus have always eaten corn and have never had lifestyle diseases because it was not processed. Processed foods are the ones which are dangerous.

​@StarrGoddess77, the unprocessed and unbleached mealie meal is called Roller Meal. It's a much healthy option as opposed to the very white bleanched and processed one.

Thank you for highlighting this trend. Sadly, most GMO corn is created to resist insect pests or tolerate herbicides. It would be hard to find truly non-GMO corn, because this crop seems to need modification to make it to harvest. 🤷‍♀I'm not a farmer so I have to take their word for it. I love corn and still eat it, but with this in mind.

[@Julietaahjum]

I don't know why everyone thinks that Nigeria if over populated who told them. Half of people living in Nigeria are not Nigeria if you can speak pidjeon language can speak Hausa or Yoruba, you are a Nigeria the problem is when you up in politics.

[@BainkongNdikwa]

Stop saying nonsense. I'm a Nigerian and the non-Nigerians are just a pinch. Do you even know what half is? So you want to say that 100 million people in Nigeria are foreigners??? Some of you need to even reason before saying certain things. Even if you take just 1/4 of Nigeria's population, it's still much compared to many African countries

[@freedomsong9747]

You all know Nigeria is an artificial country right?

[@igbounitedforum3386]

​@@BainkongNdikwaYou're right. That guy writes junk. The number of foreigners in Nigeria are insignificant to the Nigerian population. This is what I think about the Nigerian population. Firstly, it is exaggerated. Nigeria's true population isn't more than 180 million. Though, there's a high birth rate but it is heavily controlled by equally a high death rate due to many factors including diseases, many violence related deaths, high rates of accidents, poor health and medical facilities. The ave. life expectancy of adults is less than 55years and infant mortality rate is also relatuvely high. All these combined prunes the mulitplier effect of the high birth rate. Secondly, Nigeria is home to three very big ethnic groups forced into one country. By the late 19th century, the Igbo, Yoruba and Hausa were individually more than 3 million in number. How many African ethnic groups had such population at the time? These ethnic groups were just surviving the plunder of their populations through the transatlantic slave trade. At least, the Igbos lost over a million to that sordid engagement. The point is that the high population of the people within the Nigerian geographical space has always been there even when factors that limited population growth in Africa were numerous. Therefore, I strongly align with the idea that the food we eat maybe be part of our secret to higher population. Corn the culprit of this video is well eaten in Nigeria but maybe not as much as other African countries. The main staple in Nigeria is cassava which has been processed to various ways including making bread. Raw corn is mostly eaten either cooked or roasted by the whole sections of Nigeria. Processed corn flour is usually made locally without the numerous chemicals as used by foreign companies and these corn flour is mostly consumed in the northern part. A break down of the sectional rate of hypertension in Nigeria will confirm truly if corn has a hand in it. I'll be cross-checking it to confirm the claims.

[@richardmudie7158]

It was the Portuguese that introduced cassava and it is very high in starch.

[@diyeeskincare9288]

No worries❤ our parents and Ancestor’s did eat corn 🌽 they did not have a blood pressure is it is their genetic modified corn which I have a dream about it that they have started to bring it to Africa , so that they think they were able to destroy the real corn : I appreciated your knowledge sharing ❤

Yeah

[@thomasagorhom1139]

Our ancestors were hardworking and didn't have to go sit and watch television shows or play video game or be on the internet all day. The actually worked and walked a lot.

🤔 You are hitting the nail on the head....

[@AfricaToday1]

Thanks dear

[@PaulAmuna]

Without clear national nutrition and food policies with specific enforceable components for GM seeds such as corn in Africa, we are in danger of losing our indigenous seeds over time. The common practice at the moment especially among small scale farmers in my experience, is the mixing of corn seeds during planting. This makes it difficult to separate GM from non-GM seeds. We need education, awareness and activism to address what is a real potential risk.

Thank you. I was just wondering the other day why my grandparents, grand aunties, uncles and other old people in my mother's village were all living to a very ripe old age. I now realised that yams, cassava made into garri, okro and melon stews were their staple foods. Now compared this to our generations suffering from chronic diseases life hypertension, diabetes, obesity due to imported grains like rice and other consumables especially from China. I cry and worry for my fellow Africans because we act like Zombies with no sense of direction.

Good stuff. The map is very strange one. We all know that the borders never prevented neighbouring comunities from two countries to keep comon traditions, values and culture. The borders doesn't not prevent yam or corn as first choice meal. Should have some sort of "green areas" along the nigerian border. Corn consuptiom per si is not an issue. Red meat consuptiom, so much loved in Nigeria, is related to several health issues. So is the salt, sugar or even water. The amonut of food is the issue. Less food one die of hunger, too much food one die of health issues. Don't trust to much in massive field studies released overseas, bcz most of times are conducted to validate foreign agenda. I am a gradueted gentleman wno has assisted lots of field researchs and studies during long time. Believe me i know what i am talking about. I am sure that there are many layers to explain the huge size of Nigeria population. Definetely we must learn more about corn/yam thing.

[@AfricaToday1]

Thanks for your contribution. it's good more light be thrown on this for the good of our people. Even the cubes we put in our food as well as salt is horible. The thing is, people trust corn so much without knowing that, there is a bad side. The overconsumption of corn is something to be careful about. morning, afternoon, evening x forever. (that's how it is consumed in some communities), worst of all, it's like an obligation. (embeded in the culture)

Black Americans are at a higher risk of hypertension not Africans. Genetically and culturally they are very different from us Africans. Lifestyle obviously plays a role as well

[@ajamuolugbala9638]

As a Black American, I agree with you completely. I also see why. My ancestors came from Nigeria, but as you said I have not been living a food lifestyle that is consistent with longevity. My recent decision to change my health direction has induced me to cease all meat, read all food labels and ingredients, become more politically aware of food and our condition as a people in America and Africa worldwide. I have come to understand that living here in America, which is the bully of the beast, has taught me that until we Blacks in this country change our diet and health practices, among other things, we will continue dropping like flies at the hands of a very sadistic and diabolical people. Thanks for your comment, I am encouraged.
