Bitter Melon is also known as Momordica charantia, Bitter Gourd, Balsam Pear, Foo Gwa, Karela, Balsamina. The bitter melon is a tropical/subtropical herbaceous tendril bearing vine with yellow flowers, and is a member of the squash family. The fruit itself is oblong in shape with a pockmarked and warty exterior, looking like a cross between a cucumber and a gourd. It has a hollow cross section filled with large flat seeds and pith. It is grown specifically for the cultivation of its fruit, which is thought to be the bitterest edible fruit in the world. It is widely grown and cultivated in Southeast Asia, China, Africa, and the Caribbean. The seeds, leaves, and vines have been used in traditional Chinese medicine for centuries, but only the fruit is primarily used today. Gymnema sylvestre is a herb native to the tropical forests of southern and central India. Chewing the leaves suppresses the sensation of sweet. This effect is attributed to the presence of the eponymously named gymnemic acids. Common names include miracle fruit, gymnema, cowplant, Australian cowplant, gurmari, gurmarbooti, gurmar, periploca of the woods, and meshasringa.
