Plant Okra Today-It is Good for Your Health


I started this from seed given to me by Macrine's caregiver. This is ready to be transplanted. The bugs are starting to nibble the leaves, so I dusted it with Sevin Insecticide. The following post discussed that okra is good for your diabetes and other ailments. Do You have a recipe for okra? Can you share it with my readers in this blog.


Okra, also known as lady’s fingers, bamia, bhindi or gumbo, is a plant of the tropical and warm climates that produces edible green pods. The slightly immature pods are handpicked and prepared in different ways to compliment the traditional diets of many cultures. Okra (Abelmoschus esculentus) is believed to possess an abundance of health benefits, and there is ongoing research into its potential to help manage diabetes.

Okra is sold in our local grocery store ( Food Mart) for $3.99 per pound.
