What makes cassava particularly treacherous is that some processing will reduce the bitter taste and The Risk of immediate cyanide poisoning.

However, only the full, time-consuming ritual can guarantee that you will not be slowly poisoned, and develop a condition called Konzo, with symptoms including sudden paralysis of the legs. But in 1981, in Nampula in Mozambique, a young Swedish doctor knew none of this. As a result, The Situation he faced was deeply puzzling.
