Bitter gourd benefits for Diabetes
Bitter gourd is known as "vegetable insulin" because it lowers the blood glucose level in diabetics. The vegetables contain at least three active substances with anti-diabetic properties, including charantin, which has been confirmed to have a blood glucose-lowering effect, vicine and an insulin-like compound known as polypeptide-p. These substances either work individually or together to help reduce blood sugar levels.
