We all know how healthy the vegetable okra is. But most of us consume it after cooking. Eating it in the raw form might not be your preference. Try juicing it. | |||
The nutritious value of okra would benefit you more when you consume it in the form of its juice. The minerals and vitamins present in okra would benefit you when you drink it in its juice form. Though cooking okra isn't really an unhealthy practice, juicing it would be the best option. | |||
In fact, some people who hate all this tend to drink okra water. They soak a few pieces of okra in water overnight and drink the water in the morning. Though that practice is also beneficial, the real okra pieces will be strained and the water will be consumed in that practice. | |||
But when you juice okra and drink it without straining, you will get more of okra into your system. Now, here are the benefits of doing so... | |||
