Dandelions are one of the richest sources of β-carotene. The vitamin A yield (14,000 IU/100 g leaves) from dandelion is higher than that of carrot (11,000 IU/100 g carrots). The leaves are also a good source of fiber, potassium, calcium, iron, phos-phorus, magnesium, riboflavin and thiamine. Dandelion also contains sodium and vitamins C and D.* The acids found in dandelion include caffeic, p-hydroxyphenyl-acetic, chlorogenic, oleic, palmitic and the fatty acids linoleic and linolenic. Gallic and ascorbic acids are also detected. Chicoric acid and the related monocaffeyltartaric acid were found to be the major phenolic constituents in flowers, roots, leaves and involucral bracts.Preparation Products And Raw materials
