Diet tips: 9 ways okra improves digestion, immunity, heart health

^{Published on 2025-03-21 06:23:22 - Moneycontrol}

Okra, also known as lady's finger, offers a variety of health benefits including improved digestion, better heart health, boosted immunity, and support for weight management, skin, and bone health

The article from Moneycontrol discusses the health benefits of okra, also known as lady's finger or bhindi. Okra is highlighted for its rich nutritional profile, including high levels of vitamins A, C, and K, fiber, and antioxidants. Here are some key benefits mentioned:

Improves Digestion: Okra's high fiber content aids in digestion, helping to prevent constipation and promote a healthy gut.

Boosts Immunity: The vitamin C in okra enhances the immune system, helping the body fight off infections.

Heart Health: It contains soluble fiber which can help lower cholesterol levels, reducing the risk of heart disease. Additionally, okra has folate which is crucial for heart health.

Blood Sugar Regulation: The fiber in okra can slow down sugar absorption, which might help in managing diabetes.

Eye Health: Rich in beta-carotene and lutein, okra supports eye health, potentially reducing the risk of cataracts and macular degeneration.

Weight Management: Its low calorie and high fiber content make it beneficial for weight control by promoting satiety.

Skin Health: The antioxidants and vitamins in okra contribute to skin health by fighting oxidative stress.

Bone Health: Okra provides vitamin K and some calcium, which are essential for bone health.

The article also includes tips on how to incorporate okra into your diet, suggesting methods like stir-frying, adding to soups, or even consuming it raw in salads to maximize its health benefits.
