Abstract
The Asteraceae family, also known as the sunflower family or daisy family, is the largest family of flowering plants with over 30,000 species found worldwide. The most distinctive feature is the inflorescence, called a capitulum or head. Many Asteraceae members are good sources of essential vitamins A, B, C, E, and K, folate, potassium, and healthy fats. They are also rich in antioxidants and prebiotics. However, some members also contain oxalates and Sesquiterpene lactones which can cause allergic reactions in some individuals (Song et al., 2020).
