Okra Nutrition And Benefits
After Watching This Video You Will Start Eating Okra every day. Okra or commonly known as lady’s finger is a widely consumed vegetable in tropical regions.
This green veggie is filled with folic acid, vitamin B, vitamin C, vitamin A, vitamin K, calcium, fibre, potassium, antioxidants, and some vital phytonutrient. Here are a few of okra’s health advantages:
Okra is a high-fibre food and may contribute to a healthy digestive tract.
Adequate fibre adds bulk to food and helps move food through the digestive tract.
Antioxidants aids in reversing skin damage and slows down the ageing process, thus, giving you youthful skin. As okra is rich in fibre, it helps in improving insulin sensitivity and also aids in controlling and maintaining blood sugar levels in the body.
Okra is a good source of folate, which is an important nutrient for pregnant women. Various antioxidant components present in okra make it very beneficial to fight off free radicals; however, the high vitamin C content also means that the general immune system is boosted. Okra is a good option for people who have cholesterol or any other heart ailment as the fibre present in this veggie will help in lowering the bad cholesterol level and promote good cholesterol in the body.
A serving of okra provides 6% of the daily value of calcium and 16% of the daily value of magnesium.
