Okra is rich in magnesium, folate, fiber, antioxidants, and vitamins C, K1, and A. It may help support a healthy pregnancy, heart, and blood sugar and may even have anticancer properties.
Okra is a flowering plant known for its edible seed pods. It’s cultivated in warm and tropical climates, such as Africa and South Asia.
Sometimes referred to as “lady’s finger,” okra comes in two colors—red and green. Both varieties taste the same, and the red one turns green when cooked.
Biologically classified as a fruit, okra is generally utilized like a vegetable in cooking. It’s frequently used in Southern American cuisine and a popular addition to gumbo. But it can have a slimy texture, which some people find unappealing.
Though not one of the most common foods, okra is packed with nutrition.
