Leafy green vegetables are a cheap source of nutrients which should be far better utilized in the diets of poorer people to combat malnutrition. Some common plants in India which have been ignored through ignorance actually have significant nutrient content. Celosia, Rumex, Amaranthus, Moringa, Trianthema, Coriandrum and Digera arvensis were analyzed for protein content, nitrogen, reducing and non-reducing sugars, starch, and the B vitamins. These results, along with already established values for vitamins A, C, calcium and iron, indicate that such plants as Trianthema portulacastrum, Celosia and Moringa would be highly valuable additions to the Indian diet.
