Nopal (Opuntia streptacantha), also known as the prickly pear cactus, is desert cactus native to Mexico, the southwestern U.S., and can also be found in the Canary Islands. It has exceptional nutritional qualities as it contains several important vitamins and minerals as well as dietary fiber.
Nopal is rich in vitamins B1 (thiamine), B2 (riboflavin), and B3 (niacin), as well as vitamin C. It contains bioflavonoids and beneficial minerals such as potassium and calcium. It is a good source of easily digestible protein, containing 17 kinds of amino acids, including 8 essential aminos.
Aside from providing all of these nutrients, Nopal cactus may help provide nutritional support for weight management diets, as well as detoxifying regimens. This is because the quality fiber found in Nopal is naturally hydrophilic. The tendency to absorb water causes the fiber to swell, which in turn may help support feelings of saiety, and a reduction in caloric intake as a result. To the extent that waste and toxins may be suspended in water, fiber can help absorb and bind these substances and support elimination from the body.
