My First Okra Harvest this Year
Okra, Abelmoschus esculentus, known in many English-speaking countries as ladies' fingers or ochro, is a flowering plant in the mallow family. It is valued for its edible green seed pods. The geographical origin of okra is disputed, with supporters of West African, Ethiopian, and South Asian origins*.
The following are known to be the medicinal benefits of Okra:
Alleviates Asthma. ...
Lowers Cholesterol. ...
Manages Diabetes. ...
Boosts Immune System. ...
Prevents Kidney Disease. ...
Promotes Healthy Pregnancy.
