I’d always say healthy eating is healthy living and note please if you’re hypertensive and looking to reduce weight, this should be taken in the most minimal quantity and the reason is this, palm oil used to make egusi soup is a saturated fat and when it is bleached it changes to a trans fat which is not healthy for the heart this is for hypertensive persons , but I’m not managing any hypertensive case so I did just a little of bleaching and also the melon seeds contains fats so as a person looking to reduce weight or even a hypertensive person you don’t need too much of fat, so ensure the vegetables in your egusi is much more.
