In Ghana it is called Prekese. In Nigeria, Oshosho. In Cameroon, Owob. One fruit, many names, one purpose…to heal.
A piece of history
Aidan fruit has been used across West Africa for centuries. Traditionally mothers were given Aidan fruit tea in the days after childbirth to aid recovery, reduce inflammation and restore strength. It was so valued for this purpose that it became a staple in every Ghanaian household, not as medicine kept in a cabinet, but as a spice kept in the kitchen, used daily in soups and broths.
