Have you ever taught the reasons why our grandmothers and mothers love using prekese to prepare food? Have you ever heard that Ghana is among the few countries in the world that produce the prekese fruit/plant?

By the end of this article, you will find out the answers to both of the questions above. In this article, I am going to show you some of the health and spiritual benefits of prekese for Ghanaians and people from outside Ghana as a whole.

Ghana as a country is known to be one of the countries in the world with a lot of herbalists and herbs. One of such herbs that were used back then was “Prɛkɛsɛ”.

Prekese as recalled by our grandparents and those who lived before them has several spiritual benefits. Aside from the spiritual benefits, the prekese fruit is one of the most important ingredients used when preparing groundnut soup.

Is Prekese in the Bible?

For several years now, many people have been asking whether prekese was stated in the Bible. According to the second book of Moses, Exodus 30:34 reads then the Lord said to Moses, “Take fragrant spices – gum resin, ohycha and galbanum – and pure frankincense, all in equal amounts”

According to traditionalists and some pastors, the presence of the prekese fruit in the Bible signifies its spiritual importance. This is because Moses was asked by God to prepare these fruits to use them as incense.
