Proper Camphor is now now rare in the Ghanaian market!

This can lead to energy crashes, mood swings, and increased cravings for more carbohydrates. Carbohydrate breakfast  - *Insulin Resistance*: Regularly consuming high-carb foods, especially refined or processed ones, can contribute to insulin resistance, a precursor to type 2 diabetes. - *Limited Satiety*: High-carb foods tend to be less satiating, leading to overeating or snacking throughout the day. - *Impact on Gut Health*: A high-carb breakfast can disrupt the balance of gut bacteria, potentially affecting overall health and immune function.
