​@@Maryamjhampton what is this product called

I was drinking okra water during my pregnancy. It's cringe to drink for me personally. My baby came out with the whole bag, my water did not break and I delivered a hour after arriving to the house which took 45 mins to get to. The nurses were in shock and called it the fastest birth of there career, and said my next baby would come faster. What next baby😂😂😂

My baby was born in her amniotic sac too. I had an unmedicated, natural, birth. I didn’t drink okra water tho.

An African woman recommended okra water for me to regulate my diabetes years ago. I thought the slime would keep me from drinking but it's really not bad at all. Worth it for sure

If you ladies doesn’t like the slime I usually mix the okra water with a little lemon juice and that broke the sliminess right up. Gives a thinner consistency

@VirtualPayani It was a part of my lifestyle change. I drink it twice a day in the morning 30mins before breakfast and at 30 mins before dinner. A1c went from a 6.8 to 5.0 and 160lbs-145lbs. My doctor gave me 3 months to get myself together, or he was going to put me on meds.

Some people are such babies about taking medicinal, natural remedies that taste a lil funky. I blame addiction to hyper-palatable processed junk foods. Not everything that goes in your mouth needs to be mind-blowingly delicious.

I dreaded it's slimy part,.. Decided to follow your suggestion of taking it with hot water after letting it sit overnight, then before I drank it, I squeezed half a lemon in it, closed my eyes, assumed evthing and let it go down 😂😂, that wasn't so baad😅.. Then afterwards, squeezed alittle bit of lemon on my mouth to forget any slimminess 😂.. 🎉Am clapping for my self👏🏾👏🏾.. 😂, tomorrow again God willing will do it again, and again till it becomes my cup of tea. Thanks all for your suggestion s, and thumps up for the post, am gonna try it with the pinaple twist. Thanks!!!

They are a Great conditioner for your hair also.

I never, ever drank okra I will have to try that. But you can make a very quick and healthy seafood/shrimp gumbo with it by boiling the okra in water for about 15 minutes, then add wild caught shrimp, let it boil for 15-30 minutes, season with salt, pepper, onion and garlic powder. Add a spoon of toasted sesame seed oil and cayenne for a more N'awlins type taste. So healthy, warm and soothing..and yes ladies it does help with lubrication..lol! Enjoy!

I do a much easier and very tasty version of this. All you have to do is infuse your water with basically the same ingredients I use one full okra. I put this into my 1 L size glass, water bottle. You also probably could do it directly into a 16 ounce plastic water bottle just drink a little off the top to make some room. One piece of okra cut off the stock and the tail so that, the water can flow straight through it. Basically you don’t need to chop it up into pieces. Then I add some cucumber slices and pineapple chunks. A way to avoid waste is when I cut up my cucumbers for salad or my pineapples for a snack or smoothies, I take the parts that I don’t eat and save them in the fridge to infuse them in my water. so basically the center hard piece of the pineapple and the cucumber skins get saved Put some of that in into the water as well. I also use Chia seeds, flax, seeds, and fenugreek seeds. About a quarter of a teaspoon of each seeds- put them all into the water squeeze in a little bit of fresh lemon juice. I personally don’t leave the lemon in while infusing because the rind can make the water kind of bitter but if you like a very strong lemon water, then you can just leave that in there as well. Put it in the fridge let it sit overnight and boom there you have it. Shake it up before drinking each time so that the seeds can flow throughout instead of just sitting at the bottom and the okra can move around instead of just sitting up at the top where you are drinking from. The water is not going to be super thick and mucousy if you’re just using one stalk of okra, but you’re still gonna get the benefits. You can also add more water to that same glass bottle and infuse for a second day before replacing the fruits.

I usually eat 5-8 raw okras before eating any carb or starch rich food to handle sugar spike and ease digestion. I think drinking okra water and eat up all the chopped okra will make a great breakfast for the day. I will start making the water out of frozen chopped okra because I hate when the fresh ones run out in grocery stores

Can this be made for a few days at a time? Seems like what I’ve read on juicing celery, sometimes the blends can lose their potency/benefits. Not sure if this holds true for other or all veggies.

Okra is good in gumbo. Usually you get more of the nutrients from eating the whole plant instead of just the juice.

In my country we call it Ochro/Ochroes.
