you a boost of minerals. Important Warning: Safety: Correct Identification: There is a plant called “Euphorbia” that looks similar but contains a toxic white sap (latex). Purslane, when cut, releases a clear sap, not white. Unless you are 100% sure, do not eat it. Oxalates: It has a high oxalate content. Kidney stone sufferers should reduce their intake. Pesticides: If it’s growing near a street or in a sprayed area, do not eat it. Wash it thoroughly. In conclusion: This is not “weed.” This is a “superfood” that grew naturally without planting or irrigation. Science confirms its value, and our grandmothers used to cook it. Have you ever tasted cooked purslane? Or do you remove it and throw it away like weed?
