Amaranthus retroflexus
Plante herbacée indigène aux nutriments élevés.
Amaranthus retroflexus, commonly known as redroot pigweed, is a nutritious wild annual plant rich in protein, minerals (iron, calcium, magnesium), and bioactive compounds such as betacyanins and squalene. It is used as a leafy vegetable and grain, with traditional applications for inflammation and as a diuretic. Modern uses include dietary supplementation for its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties.
The anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects of Amaranthus retroflexus are attributed to betacyanins and flavonoids that scavenge free radicals and inhibit pro-inflammatory enzymes such as cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) and lipoxygenase. Squalene and tocopherols contribute to membrane stabilization and lipid peroxidation inhibition. The high protein and mineral content support nutritional status, while oxalates may bind calcium, potentially reducing bioavailability. Additionally, nitrates can be converted to nitric oxide, influencing vascular tone.
