First of all, let's take a look at what nutrients okra is rich in. Every 100g of okra contains 4.4g of dietary fiber and celery 1.4g, which is higher than common vegetables such as eggplant, pumpkin and wax gourd. High dietary fiber content can indeed reduce the increase of postprandial blood sugar, reduce insulin level or improve insulin sensitivity to some extent.
The unique mucus of okra contains mucin and water-soluble pectin, which can promote gastrointestinal peristalsis and inhibit the absorption of cholesterol and sugar. However, in general, insulin is the most powerful substance to lower blood sugar. Okra is not insulin, and there is no evidence that it can stimulate the pancreas to secrete more insulin, so it is impossible to specifically "gram" diabetes.
However, okra is low in calories and has no significant hypoglycemic effect, so it is a good vegetable for dietotherapy of diabetics. However, if you stop taking medicine directly and want to cure diabetes only by eating okra, it would be a big mistake.
In addition, because okra contains calcium oxalate, it is not recommended for kidney calculi and people with high uric acid, but people with weak spleen and stomach and frequent diarrhea are not suitable for eating this cold food for a long time.
