Okra powder

Okra contains a sticky mucin that is particularly helpful in combatting pervasive lectins (indigestible proteins) in the diet. Mucilaginous vegetables like okra act as decoys and bind to lectins, rendering them incapable of interferring with digestion. Okra powder, in combination with N-acetylglucosamine (NAG), bladderwrack, D-mannose and sodium alginate, protects the colon from bombardment by lectins, which are very common in today’s diets.
