You can add water to it and boil it. It is a very good pain reliever. You can buy it from any grocery stores owned by Somalis and other fellow Muslims.

Is there any evidence that maraq is scientifically proven as a cure for many illnesses? :|

Incognita,
Scientifically proven? Not that I know of. According to Somali legend story tellers, the maraq (soup) made out adhi/ari or geel meat helps the immune system. That is the belief back home but scientifically I have never seen any documentation supporting such claims.

I drink maraq everytime I can :mrgreen:

but it has all the nutrients from the meat, that is why in every culture they always drink maraq, chicken soup, broth, whatever you want to call it, it works great to give the body the energy and nutrients it needs to combat flu's, colds, etc

:up: I want some now :D
