The Treasure of the Desert
Nopal (Opuntia streptacantha), also known as the prickly pear cactus,
is desert cactus native to Mexico, the southwestern U.S., and can also
be found in the Canary Islands. It has exceptional nutritional qualities
as it contains several important vitamins and minerals as well as dietary
fiber.
Nopal is rich in vitamins B1 (thiamine), B2 (riboflavin), and B3 (niacin),
as well as vitamin C. It contains bioflavonoids and beneficial minerals
such as potassium and calcium. It is a good source of easily digestible
protein, containing 17 kinds of amino acids, including 8 essential aminos.
Aside from providing all of these nutrients, Nopal cactus may help provide
nutritional support for weight management diets, as well as detoxifying
regimens. This is because the quality fiber found in Nopal is naturally
hydrophilic. The tendency to absorb water causes the fiber to swell,
which in turn may help support feelings of saiety, and a reduction in
caloric intake as a result. To the extent that waste and toxins may
be suspended in water, fiber can help absorb and bind these substances
and support elimination from the body.
