Dika fat is a natural fat source obtained from the seeds of the African dika tree. The word "dika" is pronounced /ˈdiːkə/ in IPA transcription, and "fat" is pronounced /fæt/. The spelling of the word "dika" may be confusing due to the uncommon use of the letter "k" in English, but it represents the /k/ sound that is standard in many other languages. Dika fat is known for its health benefits, including glucose management and weight control.
