Artichoke
Its Latin name is Cynara scolymus L. A perennial herbaceous plant, native to North Africa. Cultivated in rich, clayey soils in the Mediterranean region, it is believed to be derived from C. cardunculus L. (cardoon), through natural selection.
Once considered a rare vegetable, it is now widely cultivated in Atlantic regions. It belongs to the Asteraceae (Composite) family, with its leaves being used. It consists of cynaropicrin, cynarin, aromatic acids, luteolin-derived flavonoids, mucilage, pectin, inulin, phytosterols, and mineral salts.
Cynarin (in addition to aromatic acids and flavonoids) is primarily responsible for the properties of Artichoke:
