Product Description
Karela (Botanical Name: Momordica charantia) is known by various names across different regions. In countries like Pakistan and India, it is commonly referred to as Karela, while in English-speaking countries, it’s known as bitter gourd, bitter squash, or bitter melon. This cucumber-like fruit, characterized by its bumpy exterior, is widely recognized for its numerous health benefits. According to Ayurvedic texts, Karela is cold in potency, easily digestible, and bitter in taste, with Pitta and Kapha pacifying properties that do not aggravate Vata. It acts as an appetizer and has a mild purgative effect. Scientific studies on Karela or Bitter Melon extract reveal the presence of plant-based natural substances like polypeptide-P, which, along with triterpenoids, alkaloids, and bitters, may help promote hypoglycemic effects through various physiological and biochemical processes. Additionally, Karela is rich in beta-carotene and other nutrients, which can aid in recovering from anemia and general debility. As a natural herbal supplement, Karela is an excellent addition to a wellness routine, supporting overall health and vitality.
