Chenopodium album
Widespread edible wild herb used globally as a nutritive food plant and medicine; high in iron, calcium, and vitamins; used in Ayurveda as Bathua.
Lamb's Quarters (Chenopodium album) is a globally widespread edible wild plant valued in traditional medicine and modern nutrition for its high content of iron, calcium, and vitamins. It is used as a nutritive tonic, for liver support, urinary disorders, and skin conditions, with active compounds including rutin, quercetin, and oxalic acid. Evidence is limited (C) but supports anti-inflammatory, diuretic, and hepatoprotective effects.
The anti-inflammatory activity is attributed to rutin and quercetin, which inhibit cyclooxygenase (COX) and lipoxygenase (LOX) pathways, reducing prostaglandin and leukotriene synthesis. The diuretic effect may involve increased renal blood flow and inhibition of aldosterone, while hepatoprotection is linked to antioxidant flavonoids that scavenge free radicals and enhance glutathione S-transferase activity. Oxalic acid content contributes to calcium binding but also poses risks for kidney stone formation.
