Crassocephalum Crepidioides
''Crassocephalum crepidioides'', also called ebolo, thickhead, redflower ragleaf, or fireweed, is an erect annual slightly succulent herb growing up to 180 cm tall. Its use is widespread in many tropical and subtropical regions, but is especially prominent in tropical Africa. Its fleshy, mucilaginous leaves and stems are eaten as a vegetable, and many parts of the plant have medical uses. However, the safety of internal use needs further research due to the presence of plant toxins.Grubben, G.J.H., ''Vegetables, Volume 2 of Plant Resources of Tropical Africa'', PROTA 2004, Ecology The species is invasive in New Caledonia. Toxicity ''Crassocephalum crepidioides'' contains the hepatotoxic and tumorigenic pyrrolizidine alkaloid Pyrrolizidine alkaloids (PAs), sometimes referred to as necine bases, are a group of naturally occurring alkaloids based on the structure of pyrrolizidine. Pyrrolizidine alkaloids are produced by plants as a defense mechanism against insect he . ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
