“…Assim, espera-se que massas contendo essa planta apresentem teores semelhantes desse componente. No presente estudo, verificou-se para o teor de cinzas 2,18% m/m (± 0,13), valor próximo ao de Sato et al (2019), que ao adicionarem 10% de farinha de ora-pro-nobis em massa do tipo tagliatelle encontraram teor de cinzas 2,16%.…”

Brazilian eating habits have been redefined since the emergence of the food industry and marked by the excessive consumption of processed foods in detriment to "in natura" products, resulting in an imbalance in the supply of nutrients and an increase in energy consumption. As a counterpart to this scenario, the "Slow Food" movement has been gaining strength around the world for combining pleasure and regionality in the eating habit. In this sense, the use of unconventional food plants (PANCs) in the development of new food products has been shown to be a viable alternative to improve their nutritional quality and at the same time rescue regional traditions through conscious consumption. In addition, PANCs are easy to grow and can be an affordable and low-cost alternative, reducing family spending on food, diversifying the diet and contributing to food sovereignty and security. The present work aimed to introduce ora-pro-nobis leaves in breads and to evaluate the physical-chemical, microbiological and sensory characteristics of the product developed. The breads were prepared with wheat flour, salt, refined sugar, brown sugar, biological yeast, soybean oil, water and ora-pro-nobis leaves and, after processing, showed 36.64% moisture, 2.18 % ash, 6.12% protein, 1.6% lipids and 53.45% carbohydrates. As for the microbiological quality, there was an absence of Salmonella spp. at 25g and <1.0 x 101 NMP / g of coliforms at 45 ° C, the breads being made safe for consumption. The sensory evaluation for the flavor attribute showed that 88% of the judges rated that they liked the product (ranging from very much to moderately liked), suggesting acceptance of the product. Breads containing ora-pro-nobis are a good alternative for increasing the consumption of this PANC, contributing to the improvement of nutritional quality and supply of nutrients for the population that seeks alternative regional products with special health-enhancing characteristics.

“…is a cactus with true leaves 1 that in Brazil is traditionally used in some regions as unconventional vegetable in natura 2,3 or after processing. [4][5][6] Its consumption increases the use of native Brazilian species, since it can be found naturally from south (Rio Grande do Sul state) to north regions (Maranhão state), in the Atlantic Forest, Cerrado and Caatinga biome. 7 Being a native species showing potential to become an agricultural crop, 8,9 it is important to know the morphological variations that it may present in conditions of environmental restrictions, such as intermittent and systematic variation in soil water deficit.…”

Considering the limited knowledge of physiology and agronomic management of Ora-pro-nóbis, we evaluate at the level of the leaf epidermal cells the response of this plant to increasing water deficits between-5 kPa and-70 kPa of soil matric potential. Material and methods The experiment was conducted in Uberlândia, Minas Gerais, Brazil (altitude 633 m, latitude 18° 45' S and longitude 48°17' W) from seedlings produced from selected cuttings (20 cm in length and diameter between 8 and 9 mm) from the same mother plant and

“…Pereskia, popularly known as ora-pro-nobis, rose cacti and leaf cacti, is a Non-Conventional Food Plant (11) , with high contents of proteins, fibers, minerals (iron and calcium), and bioactive compounds that prevent and treat diseases (9,12) . Its leaves are non-toxic (9) and can be used in salads, stews, pies (13) , pasta (13,14) and various sweet and savory recipes (15) . These plants are used to treat some types of cancers, ulcers, inflammation, and edema in Malaysia and India (15,16) , and have promising potential against obesity, dyslipidemia, and diabetes mellitus, by reducing body weight, lipid content (serum, liver, and adipose tissue mass), and blood glucose (3) .…”

The objective was to evaluate whether the juice from the leaves of cacti of three species of the genus Pereskia promotes changes in the physiological parameters of Wistar rats. The study was divided into stage 1 (obesity induction with a hypercaloric diet, monosodium glutamate, and sucrose solution), and stage 2 (use of cactus juice). The data of body weight, Body Mass and Lee Indexes, feed intake, adipose tissue mass, and Visceral and Epididymal Fat Indexes were compared by the Tukey test at 5%. Monosodium glutamate and sucrose in association with the hypercaloric diet did not increase adipose tissues. No statistical difference was found between the means of body weight, Body Mass Index and Lee Index, liver weight, and Hepatosomatic Index. Pereskia grandifolia juice promoted a lower total weight gain due to the low feed intake. Pereskia aculeata juice increased the visceral adipose tissue mass. Thus, the Pereskia grandifolia juice presented a better effect on weight gain. These cacti are rich in nutrients and bioactive compounds that can improve food quality, and prevent chronic non-communicable diseases.
