Okra: Nutritional Benefits and a Culinary Legacy from the African Diaspora
Okra is low in calories and high in fiber, supporting digestion and steady blood sugar. It delivers vitamins C and K, folate, and antioxidants that protect cells and reduce inflammation. Rich in plant-based mucilage, it soothes the gut and helps nutrient absorption—making okra a nutritious addition to a balanced, vegan diet.
