Ayurveda Dr KS Rajithan from Thirissur says that his experience has taught him that diabetic patients are benefited by consuming lady's finger along with other medicines. Rajithan said that his observations have revealed that 75 persons out of 100 have benefited by eating lady's finger.

Lady's finger contains potassium, vitamin B, vitamin C, folic acid, and calcium. It's low in calories and has a high dietary fiber content. Now the new benefit of controlling the blood sugar is also being considered. Before consuming the lady's finger, it should be soaked in a glass of water throughout the previous night. Consuming 2 lady's finger daily in empty stomach helps lessen diabetes symptoms.
