Okinawan Spinach from my Garden!
Okinawan Spinach, also known as Gynura crepioides, is unusual not only in that it has fancier
color, it also is the variety grown for medicinal purposes. This type produces
way more Proanthocyanidin than any other variety. It is the Proanthocyanidin
content which is currently being investigated for its health benefits.

Chaya Plant Cnidoscolus chayamansa
Chaya is a good source of protein, vitamins
(A and C), minerals (calcium, iron and phosphorus), niacin, riboflavin and
thiamine.
However, raw chaya
leaves are toxic as they contain a glucoside that can release
toxic cyanide. Cooking for 15 minutes is essential prior to consumption
to inactivate the toxic components

Aloe vera from my garden
Beautiful Ornamental and Medicinal Plant.
This
easy-to-grow, sun-loving succulent helps clear formaldehyde and benzene, which
can be a byproduct of chemical-based cleaners, paints and more. Aloe is a smart
choice for a sunny kitchen window. Beyond its air-clearing abilities, the gel
inside an aloe plant can help heal cuts and burns.
