As a Jamaican no disrespect to my favorite Dr but as a Jamaican we have been eating okra from as long as I can remember and what the Dr Is saying about okra and fertility we always hear our elders talked about it especially the Rastafarians , my question is how come our elderly people on the island knew all about the nutritional value of the different foods and vegetables and they didn’t have a college degree some of them never even have a high school diploma but yet they new so much , nowadays we don’t even know what we are eating it looks like food but is it ?
The Chinese knew about these benefits donkey years ago.
That is wisdom of the elderly. Food is thy medicine. What we are eating is not food now but fastfood, which almost equal to trash😜
The old people learned from culture. Nowadays people turn away from that.
God reveal things to them and some of us! That’s call revelation knowledge! It comes From God! That why some people can go to a herb in the wild, and tell you what that plant, or flowers, or berries is go for, with out every going to school! Then they past the knowledge down to science, or family members, or who every they meet in life!

It's amazing how as an African who grew up under very extreme poverty lines, what my parents could afford was green veggies, meat was a luxury only afforded mostly at Christmas. What we didn't know was that, what we thought or saw as a poor man's diet, inclusive of Okra almost every second day was actually very healthy for our bodies. Thanks Dr for such enlightenment
Yes, we Africans are really blessed, we have so healthy food and we don't know.
Be blessed Dr
Love love me some okra. And you are right the juice is the best part of the okra. Stop constipation.
True am from Kenya 🇰🇪 my mum made us eat okra vegetables for a good digestive system, my mum is illiterate she never went to school but she was very wise, am 60 years old now my mum is in her early eighties!!
When I was growing up, cancer was a disease for white rich people!!! I never heard anyone in my family ever dying of cancer, my maternal and parternal grandparents died of old age attained almost a hundred years, they died in their late 90s, we come from the lake area our main diet being fish, millet, traditional vegetables (including okra) sweet potato and groundnuts.
Meat is eaten on festive occasions and the cows are traditional ones grazing from one place to another,the cows milk is used to produce ghee.
I'm an okra farmer and I didn't know it had so much health benefits.
Thanks for the info.
It is very good at reducing cholesterol when you soak the piece in water (cut it into pieces) for a few periods. You drink the slimy water.
Madhead , I beg you not to jack your okra price 😂😂😂
My Caribbean & Southern families have been eating okra/okro since before I was born. My grandmother told me that particular food came over to the Caribbean and the US with the slaves from West Africa. The elders in my family ate it fried, stewed, sautéed faithfully… and these are the elders that lived beyond their 80’s. Thanks for putting this out into the public eye.
Not only west Africa but talk of all of Africa 🔥🔥

We eat it regularly in certain provinces in the Philippines or most places in this country. Staple food!
I'm from West Africa, parents farmers, we ate okra in almost everything, and we love it. I don't know what can stop us from eating okra. We farm it, and we eat it
@@Iggy9194 do you have any rips for growing it ? I have four plants in the ground and they aren't producing very much !! does it need highly fertile soil? I'm in the tropics of Australia, growing in sandy soil.
Has anyone told you that you are such an inspirational person on a Earth!
Thats why we African people 🇳🇬 are very healthy
You are? How do you use orka
@@renjackson3822
You can steam it or stir fry it.
I stir fry it with either shrimp, Brussels sprouts, green beans, broccoli, cauliflower, you get it.
You can also make rice with it, just make sure you season the rice to bring out the flavors.
You can also cook it with things that require longer cooking time and water, like soups or stews. But the best way to make it it's stir frying it lightly seasoned, crunchy but not mushy. If you want to cut down on the slime use lemon juice. 🤗
@@LunaPaloma77 Got it! Thanks
@@LunaPaloma77 my mum makes chapatti with stir fried okra
I am an Indian and have been eating okra since childhood. It grows during summer season in India and is used as a vegetable. We fry it, saute, stuff it etc. It is very tasty.
Ladyfingers!
My mother was from Louisiana and that is a very popular ingredient in gumbo which is absolutely delicious!!!
I am eating okra now for the first time with onion & garlic - I like a lot.
Okra is one of our main meals in Ghana, especially the for the ewe's located in the (Volta region), yet many "educated" people are leaving this blessing of ours for fries and all kind of foods that will deteriorate thier health.

Elena P. Thank you
Elena P. Thanks
Wonderful,TKU😑
Thank you!
Eeeeeh my sister ooo you know the secret 😄👍I love okra and I eat it with with quinoa almost every day
Dr. Alan, as a physician myself, I really applaud you for breaking away from the pharmaceutical companies and other colleagues. Actually, as an African, okra is a main part of our diet. But the reason why we don't get the full benefits is because of the way we prepare it- with all kinds of meat, oil, etc.
Pls Dr. So as an African how can cook okra to get all it benefits?
You can steam it, sauté in olive oil and go from there to build whatever dish you’re making because olive oil is just as healthy as the okra.
I agree with u as an African too we over do okra and lose the benefits. I started drinking okra water and it's amazing.
Not everyone cook okra with oil, meat etc. That is called *ila asepo*. Originally, Yorubas cook okra fresh with just a little salt and iru ( a seasoning) . Then use it along red stew to eat our solids.
Just for 3mins. On the other hand, for the mixed okra with oil,meat etc..the okra is added last ! It uses just 3mins as well. * We usually add bitter leaf / ugwu leaves to make the dish healthier and more enjoyable.
You still get all its benefits even though you cook it with all meats 🍖 as long as you have it in the soup.
Thank you so much. I'm from typical rural area in Ghana 🇬🇭. My father taught me all this. And he never went to school like you. And now you confirmed it. How healthy that is okra to our body's. Thank you once again. For sharing such great knowledge with us. GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR ENTIRE FAMILY 👪.
🇬🇭🙏
I love okra! Fried, boiled, in soups. I can eat them pickled but prefer fried. Since fried foods are taboo, I only eat it fried once in a blue moon. I like the slimy too. My dad grew this every year and it produces beautiful yellow blooms. The tallest okra plant I have ever seen is 16foot tall. In order to produce an abundant crop keep harvesting each stalk on a continuous basis when a pod is about 2 inches long. A new pod will grow. You will only need approximately 10 plants to keep you supplied for the summer, and it freezes really well if you have too much. Okra loves hot weather and water regularly. If the plant does not get enough water the pod will be dry and hard. I like the little pods best of all. I grows really fast so keep it cut.
I am pre-diabetic, and this has been very helpful. It has been hard to lose weight, but that changed after I started drinking Okra water because it does help regulate my insulin levels. It is also perfect for your joints. People from TZ have been using this for ages
🇹🇿
Also in early pregnacy
Yes, indeed, it is. I recommend it for anyone who's experiencing joint pain.
Taking an okra supplement. It is helping my digestion & seems to be helping Type 2 diabetes, fatty liver & spleen. Also taking green tea in a cup of hot water, along with apple cider vinegar, lemon, cinnamon & raw honey every night. Been doing this for about 3 weeks & can already feel & notice a difference. Thank You Doctor.
Please tell me the brand you use.
@@Versiongurl Braggs apple cider is the best u have to get The Mother one
Hi everyone, pls eat fresh much better. Steam, not boiling, until soft. Dip into sauce of your choice and eat with rice. I cook pork or chicken or duck in a pot with a bit of sugar, salt, water , ground peppers and fish sauce. This is fhe sauce to eat with salad, okra etc. Simple but the best. To buy the younb okra, just snap the tail and if it is fallen apart that means fresh and young. If it doesn't fall apart, it's old and chewy, don't buy them. Pls avoid tablets as supplements.
What else is in that supplement?
I do a variation of this adding chamomile tea and a little root beer for taste. The only ingredient I'm leaving out is the apple cider vinegar.
He was on 3 million subs 2 months ago when i decided to change my eating habits.. one of his ACV recipes for heart health has done wonders for me. You deserve all the success in your life Doctor!

My family has been eating okra for centuries. I put it in my veggie soup, too. I love it cooked with onions, garlic & tomatoes. Yummy! So good!
Thank you Dr. We eat Okra in Nigeria and moving to the UK, I still enjoy Okra. We regularly eat it with Eba (cassava grain), Amala (yam flour) or Iyan (Pounded Yam). The way we cook it in Nigeria is appealing as we lightly grate it, add iru spice or dry fish...yum yum!!
I love okra soup and eba.
I have okro and iru in my fridge as we speak 😂
We Nigerians get good food, we no dey board last !
In Louisiana okra is a very popular food. My father and grandfather grew a truck patch, which is a large vegetable garden. I am retired now, 67 and my body feels starved for most of the foods I and my husband was raised on. We both have strong cravings for sugar but have cut back. We also try very hard to stay away from fast foods. We eat real foods and fruits and vegetables daily. We are what we eat I truly believe this. Speaking of okra. I purchase one bushel annually from an elderly lady in town who cooks it and stores it in freezer bags. Been doing this for years because it’s not too fun to prep, cook and store it. Had to help mom do that when I was a kid!!!!!! Boiling the small okra and pouring a little vinegar and white pepper is also delicious or pickled too.
I literally just harvested okra seeds off of my plant for the first time and I came across this video!!
I love okra!!!
Great video!
Okra. Original name in ibo language, okwuru. Popular Nigerian vegetable used in making okra soup. Mmmm!!!
Okra chicken soup is one of the tastiest soups I have ever had. Had it in Ghana and it was delicious .
Chineme Udegbu . What makes u thing it originated from Nigeria. Nigeria is the only country producing it.
Chineme Udegbu yummy
@@maxflorencia3820 Okra is grown right here in Texas, as well as other US states.
@@maxflorencia3820. Can you call it in your own local language?? That Okwuru name is Igbo language, Britain turned it to Okra, during their Slavery trade in Biafra land.
Thank you so much Dr Mandel.My husband and I started drinking okra water for the past 3 days and to our surprise our joint aches are over.To quote my husband s words,he said what happened to my aches I can only conclude that it is this okra juice that we have been taking for the past 3 days.am so grateful to your help.may you be remembered by God always

I love okra, eating okra every day, You never get constipation. Thank You Dr Mandel.
I love this vegetable. I was raised on it. My Father was from the South and they ate it almost everyday. I love it so much and I prepare it in many ways. Thank you and God Bless you Dr. Mandell.
I love it too
How do you prepare yours?
Okra is one of my favorite vegetable. Thank you doc for sharing the good benefits of okra...Love you doc and God bless you always❤💖💝
Okra with Peper soup, accompanied with fufu.... Yummy. Neighbours do not knock, I am on holiday.

@@dominiquegibson5990 There's a lot of ytube channel okra tutorials. Very easy u just have to come up with your own dish.It has a lot of health benefits.

Dr. Mandel is the right person for the right job at the right time.
AMEN 🙏 🌺🦋💖🙏
He is very knowledgeable, and I gained so much from his wealth of knowledge
Well said
I was afraid to click!! I thought you were going to tell me okra was not good for me. I'm so glad to see that it's a good food! It is kind of a comfort food for me. It reminds me of my Big Mama (granny) & Big Daddy (grandpa). They farmed it in a small rural country town in Texas. My Big Mama was from Louisiana so she made chicken Gumbo with okra all the time!
That’s exactly what happened to me!! There is already so much I have to avoid, and I love okra…I was sure he was gonna say, “DO NOT EAT OKRA”, but I forced myself to watch it…so glad I did!!!!
I am of African decent and okra is a major part of our diet. We have a lot of delectable recipes of okra dishes!!
Hi
Can you share your recipes?
@@renjackson3822 soup lol
Hey
Absolutely true!!!
I love okra I eat them raw only from my garden in Jamaica, when I came and do my H1c test it went down from the last time I had it done,
Okra has been our favourite soup in our yoruba land. It has a lot of medicinal benefits for our system as well as for our hair.
You eat it rawwww...wow
Put okra in a pit of water , boil it , strain it, then mix it with sweet condensed milk, a bit of spice , and that’s okra juice , you can add Guinness to it if you want to.
Open the belly of the fish , and stuff it with okra , carrots , cabbage, bell peppers, thyme , fish seasoning and spinach if you want , wrap the fish in foil , place it on your barbecue , or put it in your oven , but first put a little water in a oven dish , then put the wrapped up fish in the water , put in oven and steam , oh put some butter in the fish belly with the stuttering, and some butter on top of the fish, then wrap in foil , place it in the oven dish .
Put lots of okra in your pot of fish soup aswell
Steam fish on the cooker , with lots of okra , some seasoning, thyme , carrots , any vegetable you like , potatoes, excelsior crackers , close that pot , few mins , and you will have a lovely steamed fish meal 🥘
I eat it raw too.. wondering none of you eat it raw! In my SALADS with raw baby okra.. yummy 😋..thanks for all informations..👍👍👍😇💕😋
I cut them in half the long way, toss them in oil then shake chili powder on them then air fry. Great tasting easily replaces popcorn, potato chips, etc as a snack

Wow this sounds great because I like okra but I don't know how to cook it. And I like to cook. And I just bought an air fryer. So I think I will go tomorrow and pick some up and try to make them in the air fryer. Thank you for this I love it when people share. God bless you.
Mmmm sounds great that way. We cut them small and sun- dry for a few hours which takes away the stickiness
Really 😳
I use to hate it, but now I'm enjoying it , since I'm learning about it's benefits. Bless you doc.
Good 😊 day

I ate the young okra raw when i was younger. I love to eat it whole in stew. Many of these plants came with our ancestors. We are lucky to have these vegetables available.
I was my healthiest when I used to consume Okra. I used to buy frozen Okra and Isaute it on a pan that I fried a salmon on. It never turn out slimy.
Thank you for talking about okra. I love it any way it's prepared. Especially with brown rice and zesty tomatoes. I wasn't aware how healthy it is. 👍
Been a Greek .my mother still makes this dish with other vegetables tomatoes onions beans and spices with chicken as a stew .one of my favourite dish.

As a Caribbean national ockro is a staple in Caribbean and West African diets for centuries. We grow, harvest and eat ockro from our backyards. We prepare it in many ways and have known for a long time about the benefits you listed. But I am glad to see it making its way into Western diets.

thank you Dr. Mandell. I intend to start an intense OKRA program today. i have some nice green young OKRA in the fridge.in addition i planted some OKRA seeds and the trees are growing well.
I grew up on okra. Picked it fresh from the garden. Love it cooked in fish curry.
So very true, I recently had a conversation with a friend, talking about our grandmother that raised us. How they did not have a degree. Not even a high school diploma. Yet they were smart, wise. They fed you the healthiest foods. Yes okra is an amazing vegetable. Thanks be to God for our grandmother's.
Indians knew about the value of Okra for centuries. So I'm glad that people are extolling the virtues of this phenomenal vegetable.
Okra is very good for any one who has PROSTATE Problem.
I absolutely love Okro, that's what we call it in our part of the world. Thank you so much for this video. I learnt lots from it. I make curry and put them in soups.

Thank you doc. I personally love Okra but had no idea that it’s this healthy for you.
Okra, Shrimp and Tomatoes with Andouille Sausage over rice is one of my favorite recipes. Everyone, even those that think that they hate okra even love it! I also put it in my Gumbo. The secret to cooking Okra is to NOT over manipulate it because then it becomes too slimy!
Right! I like eating it whole, not chopped up.
Yes, use to cook it just that way using Hillshire Polish sausage- now I cook it with a little olive oil to get rid of some of the slim, shredded chicken breast, chopped garlic, sliced polish sausage, add water and Touch of Taste chicken bouillon simmer keeping liquid content high-then pour over rice! Delicious! Salt & Pepper to taste. Another form of quick gumbo.
I planted twenty plants of okra this season and have been enjoying it very much! Didn’t know about all of this! Wonderful!
.Thank you very much Dr. Mandell. God Bless. We are all grateful for professionalslike you.
Thank you Dr. Mandell for such valuable in formation on Okra. ALL YOUR VIDEOS ARE HELPFUL AND VERY INFORMATIVE and EASY to UNDERSTAND. GOD BLESS YOU ALL!!!
Thank you Dr for given us the insight of okra we eat that a lot but didn't know all these ,now. I know Thanks and God bless.
Dr. Allen, It',s proving that exact meaning of a kindness, as a Doctor to the miserable patients, who knows nothing about the medical treatments. We really appreciate your concern , realizing the gap between the Doctor and a patient and giving this kind of presentation. Such Doctors are called our living gods. I take this opportunity to thank the entire society of the medical field for their generous contribution. Thank you so much once again. Damitha de Silva.
I love okra thanks to my dad and grand parents as a child growing up picking okra from the garden I never forget grand ma warned me that it will make you itch if you touch it with your bare hands but that didn’t stop me from cleaning cutting and helping out in the kitchen cooking I didn’t know at the time how healthy it was thanks for the video very interesting ❤️♥️♥️👍

At 09:34 he talks about the slimy properties of Okra. That is the healthy mucilaginous part of okra. Don't try and get rid of it as he suggests. Okra is one of the great mucilaginous vegetables. Mucilaginous foods are the healers of the body. The slimy part of okra is the most valuable and healthiest part of okra. Learn to love slimy veggies and heal yourself naturally. And now you know the rest of the story.

I can eat okra… but… my son has diverticulitis and this is one food he can’t have. It gets into the pockets of your colon. But he loves it. I didn’t know that this is good for the body in so many ways. Thank you!!
