As long as you eat 2~3 bitter melons every day, you can achieve the effect of lowering blood sugar and blood lipid. Eating raw bitter gourd can also speed up excretion and reduce appetite, which are the main reasons for bitter gourd to lose weight.
It should be noted that bitter gourd must be eaten raw to play these roles. After frying, the effect is greatly reduced, and juicing is also effective, but if you eat it together with bitter gourd meat, the effect will be better.
Because the dietary fiber contained in it can enhance satiety and suppress appetite better. While losing weight, you must remember to supplement enough nutrients, especially vitamin B and minerals. Because bitter gourd can promote excretion and also lead to the loss of nutrients, bitter gourd itself is rich in vitamin C and potassium, but other nutrients are not high, so it is not appropriate to completely replace other vegetables with it.
In addition, people who are prone to diarrhea should use bitter gourd with caution, because it will aggravate diarrhea and cause malnutrition, and they should also avoid eating a lot of bitter gourd during menstruation.
