Was wondering if anyone has heard of this and if so how much to you have to eat? I don't like it but if if works i'd be willing to force myself to eat it..I'm stage 3 C currently on Yervoy..
Anyone heard of this??

They mention "Southern Diet", which makes me think "Breaded and fried", which is exactly how I like my okra. I'll have to try it raw, since I'm sure that frying negates some (most?) of the health benefits. Les is the same way.
