RSC Advances Pub Date: 2022-12-07 DOI: 10.1039/D2RA07406K
Abstract
Corchorus olitorius L. is a nutritious green leafy vegetable that is eaten as a viscous soup in African and Middle Eastern cultures. The purpose of this review is to highlight the nutritional and nutraceutical potential of this plant. The leaves of C. olitorius are rich providers of minerals as calcium and iron in addition to vitamins B1, B2, folic acid C and E. The leaves contain numerous compounds having several biological effects including antidiabetic and antioxidant properties. Besides, the leaves comprise other phytochemicals such as cardiac glycosides, terpenes, flavonoids, fatty acids, hydrocarbons and phenolics. Various extracts of C. olitorius were shown to exhibit antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, hepatoprotective, antihyperlipidemic, immunostimulant, antitumor, antimicrobial, antidiabetic, analgesic, wound-healing properties and cardioprotective activities.
