Abstract
The Basellaceae family, also known as the Madeira vine family, is a small group of flowering plants with 4 genera and 19 species. Basella is a great choice for weight management or healthy eating plans. A 100-gram serving of raw Basella leaves contains only about 19 calories and negligible fat. The members are rich in beta-carotene, Vitamin C, iron, calcium, magnesium, potassium, manganese, folate, dietary fiber, and flavonoids. They also contain anti-nutritional compounds like oxalates and phytates (Kumar et al., 2015).
