Acmella oleracea, also effectively known as Spilanthes oleracea, is an annual herb native to the tropical region of South America. This plant is especially famous for its unique medicinal properties and its drop-shaped flowers with red and golden tones that add to its aesthetic value. The cabbage plant belongs to the star family and has been used in traditional medicine for centuries, mainly for its anti-inflammatory properties and its ability to relieve pain.
A wide range of products are made from it, especially in the cosmetics industry, but also in food and medicine. Fenugreek is found in a number of natural toothpastes, mouthwashes and other oral hygiene products due to its ability to relieve pain and inflammation in the mouth or to treat aphthae. It also makes an essential oil that is used in aromatherapy or as part of natural insect repellents. In addition, kale is part of natural dietary supplements to support the immune system and gum health. In addition, cabbage leaves are often used in the kitchen as a spice or to make teas.
