Abstract

Leafy vegetables are dominant source of nutrition as well as therapeutic potential such as proteins, minerals, amino acids, fatty acids, vitamins, and bioactive components. Talinum spp. are wide spread globally and utilized for nutritional, medicinal, and ornamental purposes. Talinum triangulare (Jacq.) Willd. is a tropical cosmopolitan leafy vegetable commonly called Ceylon spinach, a well-known vegetable in Africa, America, and Asia. This review provides a cross section of nutraceutical potential and bioactive attributes of T. triangulare. Being traditionally used, T. triangulare possess several health benefits to combat anemia, diabetes, hepato-disorders, neuro-disorders, cardiovascular diseases, and other ailments. Although T. triangulare is well-known traditionally for its versatility of nutrition and medicinal values, it has been neglected as a useless weed. This leafy vegetable is capable to safeguard its nutraceutical and medicinal attributes in spite of oven-drying at 60 °C without substantial loss which is an added advantage for industrial applications. Further insight on the mucilage and pigments of T. triangulare will open up new avenues in food, health, and pharmaceutical industries.
