Bitter melon is also one of the best remedies for diabetes. If you are a certified diabetic, a regular intake of Karela will give you a better result. It has the ability to increase the insulin sensitivity in our body. It can cure gastrointestinal diseases because it has compounds that can kill toxic substances that keep on killing the good bacteria inside of us. Karela also has anti-cancer property.
This is a real precaution to pregnant women: Try to stay away from bitter melon or try to minimize your bitter melon intake; a small amount will not harm you anyway. Why? This is because bitter melon has a property that can cause abortion. It has monarchistic substance that might have side effect on the gravid uterus.
If you do not have expertise on using bitter melon’s seed, do not try to eat it or do something about it. This is highly toxic, and might lead to vomiting, diarrhea, and can even cause coma to children. So, don’t let your kids eat its seed because it poisonous.
