The bitter melon(also known as bitter gourd) looks like a cucumber but with ugly gourd-like bumps all over it.As the name implies,this vegetable is a melon that is bitter.
Bitter gourds are very low in calories but dense with precious nutrients.It is an excellent source of vitamins B1,B2, and B3,C,Magnesium, folic acid,zinc,phosphorus,manganese and has high dietary fiber.It is rich in iron,contains twice the beta-carotene of broccoli, twice the calcium of the spinach and twice the potassium of a banana.
