Abstract
The Capparaceae family, also known as the caper family, is a group of flowering plants with 33 genera and about 700 species. Some members are rich sources of vitamins, including vitamin A (in the form of beta-carotene), vitamin C, and vitamin K. They may also contain minerals like potassium, calcium, and iron. Some members may contain anti-nutritional compounds like Glucosinolates and tannins (Kamel et al., 2009).
