Garden Egg is one of the
healthiest food you can eat and being used in different ways to prepare
delicacies like African salad etc.

contains nutrients that include beta carotene, vitamins B6, E and foliate,
calcium, iron, magnesium, fiber and many essential vitamins and minerals.

perfect food option for those interested in losing weight because of its high fiber
content. When you take garden egg, it fills the
tummy because of its fiber content which reduces the food you consume, thereby
reducing the calories and body weight.

and Solanum macrocarpon) caused 55% and 43% weight reduction respectively in
tested rats.
