Nopal

Also known as the Prickly Pear Cactus or the Nopal Cactus, the Nopal is a cactus native to Mexico and grows in warm, sunny climates on arid soil. The prickly pear cactus, or Nopal, has a tree-like form up to 6 meters tall. Blooming in spring, the nopal produces edible fruits, weighing 50 to 400 grams: prickly pears. In Mexico, young nopals (nopalitos) are eaten as vegetables and the fruits as well. In addition to its culinary qualities, this multi-purpose cactus has been used as a medicinal plant in poultices, infusions, and drinks. In traditional medicine, Nopal is used to lower blood sugar levels.

Nopal contains vitamins A, B, and C, as well as fiber, minerals (calcium, magnesium, iron, etc.), amino acids, proteins, and a significant amount of chlorophyll. Nopal helps support weight management and the proper functioning of lipid metabolism. It's an ideal ally for a balanced diet! Soluble and insoluble fibers provide a feeling of satiety by swelling in the presence of water when they reach the stomach. They bind to some of the fats consumed during the meal; once trapped, these fats are naturally eliminated.

Nopal also helps relieve gastrointestinal pain and appears to help prevent gastric ulcers.
