If there is a delay, you will be notified by email. No signature is required for standard ground shipping, so you may want to make arrangements to have packages brought inside soon after delivery, if you are unable to receive it in person.Composition and care

We speak a lot about the importance of gut health—not only for beauty—but also in terms of our overall health, wellbeing and immunity. But before we can fully understand why the gut is so integral to our health, it’s first essential to learn more about the physiology of the gut itself—and how it works.
Description
Karela, another name for bitter gourd, is a tropical and subtropical vine that belongs to the Cucurbitaceae family and is commonly planted for its tasty fruit. This green, oblong fruit has a characteristic bitter taste to its crunchy flesh, which is coated with ridges and warts. Bitter gourd is prized for its therapeutic and nutritional qualities. It offers a rich supply of potassium, magnesium, iron, and vitamins A and C. It also includes potent ingredients with anti-diabetic qualities, such as momordicin and charantin.
The fruit is frequently used in many different types of cooking, including pickles, curries, and stir-fries. It is frequently blanched before cooking or soaked in saltwater to lessen its bitterness. The bitter gourd grows best in hot, humid settings with well-drained, fertile soil. The fruit ripens in 90 to 100 days, and the vine yields yellow blossoms.
Because of its health advantages, bitter gourd is also used in traditional medicine to enhance immunity, regulate blood sugar levels, and promote digestion. It’s a great option for people who are worried about their weight because of its low calorie content. All things considered, bitter gourd is a versatile vegetable with a distinct flavor and a host of health advantages.
