Okrai is just a relatively new netroots, is a very popular dishes, and even nicknamed "anti-cancer killer" "soft gold". He, like other vegetables, is rich in vitamins, dietary fiber and minerals and a more special mucus plant polysaccharide. Plant polysaccharides do have a lot of benefits to the body, these plant polysaccharides can not be directly absorbed by the body, is a good food for the intestinal beneficial bacteria, to help the flora balance.
Mucins are actually a group of high molecular weight, heavily glycosylated proteins. After digestion and absorption by the gastrointestinal tract, they are turned into amino acids. Protein in meat also breaks down into amino acids. Although protein and fat have the effect of slowing the rise of blood sugar, the mucin content in okra is not high enough to achieve the effect of treating diabetes. When you blanch okra and then cool it, cut it lengthwise, it looks very much like a lily in full bloom. If cut horizontally and very much like a small star, I have to say, okra is the most cute a vegetable.
The okra is low in calories, and regular consumption can help digestion, enhance physical strength, protect the liver, but also relieve constipation, cancer prevention, anti-cancer, eyesight protection. Okra can generally be fried, made soup, pickled and so on. However, patients with digestive insufficiency or cold spleen and stomach should not eat more, and allergies should also be eaten with caution. There are many other vegetables that are beneficial to diabetes, such as: cabbage, eggplant, cauliflower, spinach, white radish, carrot, broccoli, cucumber, celery, cabbage, winter squash, pumpkin, zucchini and so on.
Absolutely not, such rumor mongering happens every day. Diabetes is mainly about sugar control. Whoever has a higher instinct for controlling sugar. Whoever's flare-ups come slower. Who will win. Okra cannot lower sugar. All the food that does not contain sugar, can only be enlightened to not rise sugar. Or rise sugar slowly. Never think. How to lower sugar how. The only way to lower sugar is to eliminate through exercise. Consumption of sugar in the body. Okra is just a vegetable, containing mucin, dietary fiber can have to ease the absorption of sugar, reduce the body's need for insulin. In addition, it contains carotenoids, which can maintain a balanced blood sugar. But okra can not treat diabetes, or need to rely on drugs, diet, exercise, etc. to maintain the balance of blood sugar.
