From The Stargate Omnipedia

Roshnah.jpg

A liquid compound to which the Goa'uld have made Aris Boch's race addicted. Since the Goa'uld are genetically incapable of taking on this species as hosts, they devised another way to keep themselves in power. Without roshnah, Aris Boch's species die.

Roshnah can be administered in the appearance of an additional flavoring for a drink, or taken directly into the mouth.

KEY EPISODE
