A very renowned herbalist, Alhaji Akanayo, of Black Herbal Clinic at Kwasheman here in Accra has educated the general public on the disease known locally as “kooko.”'

He was speaking on the most celebrated morning show, Nsem Pii, on Happy FM.

Acoording to the herbalist, Kooko in itself is not a disease. “It is the residual remains of food we eat but it becomes a disease when such residuals perform negatively on our body systems”

He noted that the acclaimed disease has a greater influence on men especially those who sit for long in terms of work. “Kooko can even cause madness,” he said as he pin pointed on the numerous problems the said disease carry.

Alhaji Akanayo advised that Ghanaians eat their local foods and put a stop to the fried rice, the oily foods and that of chemical induced.
