Possibly the best super food out there. The leaves are the fastest acting cure for Lota skin disease. As a little boy, my grandmother rubbed it on once and it went away and as an adult in NYC the doctor recommended a shampoo that took two weeks. Like my Grenadian granny always said...Doctor? Doctor don't know $h*t!! It is certainly an acquired taste! Memories,

my dad makes tea with the leaves to control his blood sugar levels

The leaves are also good to drink. If you drink it as Tea, it lowers the Sugar in the blood. Good for diabetics 😊😊😊😊

Can you show Carilie curry is it different than the Indian bitter gourd in Trinidad are salads made with Carillie ? I'm wondering about the cilantro you are using is it related to Mexican one?

[@user-xz4eq2ci6h]

In India i think this is known as Karila is Trinidadian cuisine influenced by Indians also because i saw curries in fact i have seen in it Jamaican recipes also

[@levibaer18]

Indians were brought into the Caribbean as slaves. So I would imagine they’ve influenced every aspect of life.

[@user-xz4eq2ci6h]
