She claims the longest she’s abstained from her bizarre addiction was while pregnant with her 3-year-old son, Faiz Palmer.

Dreka spend about $3,780 this year alone on her baby powder addiction – but the mom insists she’s never experienced any health or digestive issues.

Dreka claims to claims to have pica, an eating disorder characterized by compulsions to eat non-food items such as paint or chalk.

Pica is the eating or craving of things that are not food. It is classified as an eating disorder but can also be the result of an existing mental disorder. The ingested or craved substance may be biological, natural or manmade. The term was drawn directly from the medieval Latin word for magpie, a bird subject to much folklore regarding its opportunistic feeding behaviors.
