ASHITABA
DESCRIPTION
Ashitaba, scientifically known as "Angelica keiskei," is a green leafy plant that is native to Japan.
It is often referred to as "tomorrow's leaf" because of its remarkable regenerative properties – when a leaf is plucked, a new one begins to grow in its place quite rapidly.
​
Ashitaba has gained attention for its potential health benefits. It is rich in various nutrients, including vitamins (such as vitamin B6, vitamin C, and vitamin E), minerals (like calcium and potassium), and antioxidants. Its leaves and stems are often consumed fresh or used as an ingredient in various dishes, salads, teas, and even supplements.
​
Some claimed health benefits of ashitaba include its potential to support digestion, boost the immune system, improve skin health, and provide anti-inflammatory effects.

-
Antioxidant Properties: Ashitaba is rich in a group of antioxidants known as chalcones, which can help the body fight off damage from free radicals.
-
Potential Cancer Prevention: Some laboratory studies suggest that the chalcones in Ashitaba may have anti-cancer properties, though more research is needed to determine if these effects are seen in humans.
-
Improved Digestive Health: Anecdotally, Ashitaba has been used to relieve stomach issues in traditional medicine, potentially due to its high fiber content and its ability to stimulate the production of gastric juices.
-
Blood Health: Some preliminary studies suggest that Ashitaba may have a role in promoting a healthy cholesterol balance and supporting overall cardiovascular health.
-
Anti-inflammatory Properties: Some research suggests that Ashitaba may have anti-inflammatory properties, which could potentially help with conditions such as arthritis.
