What is Epazote?

In countries like Central America and Mexico, epazote has been used for generations as an herb and ingredient in many dishes. It is an annual plant that grows up to 4 feet tall and can be used in a variety of culinary applications, including as a topical ointment, tea base, and even essential oils.

In the last few decades, it has been cultivated on other temperate areas of the world, including Europe and North America. However, it is still not widely grown or exported because it is considered an invasive weed in some areas. Many cultures consider this herb to be quite hardy and resilient to environmental conditions. The flavor itself is difficult to define, but often has a citrus, mint or tarragon-type flavor.

It’s most commonly used as a leafy vegetable by those with discerning palates who enjoy the unique tastes this herb offers.

Some of the health benefits of this green include its medicinal uses (as a topical ointment) which help ease various ailments our bodies might experience from dieting changes/lifestyle demands such as respiratory disease (among other things), as well as nutrient rich amino acids, minerals and antioxidants that come with this medicinal property.

Epazote Nutrition Facts

Epazote is a great herb to cook with. It contains vitamins and minerals like vitamin A, vitamin B (specifically folic acid), and vitamin C, as well as calcium, manganese, copper, iron, magnesium, potassium, phosphorous, and zinc. Along with these health benefits it also has dietary fiber and a small amount of protein.

Health Benefits of Epazote

Epazote is a beneficial herb, popular in Mexican cuisine, which can also be used to help with digestive problems. Their health benefits include:

Potential Gastrointestinal Effects

Epazote is a flowering herb in the mint family, which can help improve digestive health and reduce the risk for constipation, bloating, cramping and other serious conditions. Traditionally it was used mostly in Mexico to eliminate flatulence or indigestion.

May Promote Weight Loss

For those looking to lose weight, remain healthy, and get full, epazote is worth considering. It has 4 calories per tablespoon, yet it’s a nutrient-dense plant stocked with vitamins and other organic compounds.

May Help Treat Worms

The active ingredients in epazote can help eliminate certain parasitic worms in the body. This makes it a popular choice for people who may not have access to water filtration and sanitary conditions, such as developing countries.

Below are the original and rewritten sentences followed by notes on how these were changed with numbered suggestions for revision if needed.

May Improve Metabolic Activity

The B-complex family of vitamins is beneficial to human health, and while each member has a slightly different role, these B vitamins are all associated with the strength and efficiency of the metabolism. Epazote delivers significant levels of 6 different B vitamins, including folic acid.

May Boost Immunity

Certain compounds found in epazote, including carotenes and antioxidants, may play a role in the immune system. The antioxidants in epazote may protect the skin from free radical damage and also neutralizes free radical molecules that cause chronic diseases such as cancer and circulatory disorders.

May Improve Bone Health

Of the various minerals found in epazote, calcium, phosphorous, zinc, copper, and manganese are readily available. These minerals help to maintain bone mineral density and stave off osteoporosis, which means that your bones will keep you strong and healthy well into your later years.

May Help Improve Blood Pressure and Heart Health

Although abundant in potash, particularly in its essential mineral form potassium, the relatively moderate levels of these compounds found in epazote can act as vasodilators and relaxes blood vessels reducing strain on our cardiovascular system. Consequently, we can avoid gettting a heart attack or stroke.

A Final Word of Warning

Because epazote has high levels of certain organic compounds, including folic acid and the potency of the oil it can produce, it’s not ideal for consumption if you’re sensitive or have a medical condition. Gastrointestinal issues such as irritable bowel syndrome or gastroenteritis have been reported by people who ate unusually large quantities of the herb or essential oil. As always, seek medical advice before adding any new element to your regular diet.
