"In ancient Africa, it was women who worked the land because when we are on our period and that blood hits the earth, it nourishes it and helps plants grow bigger."
Ntsiki urged other women test out this theory, mixing menstrual blood with water to help grow their vegetable gardens.

Online users corroborated Ntsiki's statement, noting that it is something that has been widely known.

"What she's saying isn't ground breaking. Any form of human or animal waste is nutritious for the soil, this is why our corpses and animal carcasses nourish the soil beneath us."
Mavumavu91 agreed:
"Women being the plant gatherers and men hunting is a very colonial concept; our diet was heavily plant based because it was reliable so everyone worked towards that. The land has gone barren because of invasive species, overgrazing, deforestation, over farming and pollution."

"She is right about nourishing the earth. I don’t know about vegetables."
ZNxarhuni supported Ntsiki Mazwai's statement:
