Bathua () is a rich source of extensive-ranging nutrients, including bio-active carbohydrates, flavonoids and phenolics, minerals, and vitamins that translate to countless health benefits such as anticancer, antidiabetic, anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, and antioxidant activity. Ascaridole, an important phytoconstituent present in aerial parts of the plant, contributes to its anthelmintic property. Even with vast historical use and significant health benefits, its renown has not spread, and utilization has significantly decreased in recent decades. Gradually, the plant has become known under the name of Non-conventional edible plant (NCEP). This compilation is prepared to bring out the plant under the spotlight for further research by foregrounding previous studies on the plant. Scientific research databases, including PubMed, Google Scholar, Scopus, SpringerLink, ScienceDirect, and Wiley Online, were used to fetch data on . This review offers over up-to-date knowledge on nutritious values, phytochemical composition, volatile compounds, as well as health benefits of . The ethnobotanical and ethnomedicinal uses of the plant in India and other parts of the world are deliberately discussed. Scrutinizing the reported literature on reveals its powerful nutrient composition advantageous in the development of food products. The impact of various cooking and processing methods on the nutritional profile and bioavailability are discussed. The future perspectives with regards to the potential for food and nutraceutical products are critically addressed. This review proves the necessity of breakthrough research to investigate the pharmacology and safety of phytochemicals and nutraceutical development studies on the .
宝杜花（Bathua）是一个富含各种营养成分的来源，包括生物活性碳水化合物、类黄酮和酚类化合物、矿物质和维生素，这些成分带来了无数的健康益处，如抗癌、抗糖尿病、抗炎、抗菌和抗氧化活性。植物地上部分存在的重要植物成分ascaridole 有助于其驱虫特性。尽管有大量的历史应用和显著的健康益处，但它的知名度并没有传播开来，近几十年来其利用率显著下降。渐渐地，这种植物被称为非传统食用植物（NCEP）。本汇编旨在通过突出以前对该植物的研究，将该植物置于聚光灯下，以进行进一步的研究。科学研究数据库，包括 PubMed、Google Scholar、Scopus、SpringerLink、ScienceDirect 和 Wiley Online，被用来获取有关 的数据。本综述提供了关于营养值、植物化学成分、挥发性化合物以及 的健康益处的最新知识。故意讨论了该植物在印度和世界其他地区的民族植物学和民族医学用途。仔细审查关于 的报告文献表明，它具有强大的营养成分，有利于食品产品的开发。讨论了各种烹饪和加工方法对营养状况和生物利用度的影响。批判性地讨论了关于食品和营养保健品的潜在未来前景。本综述证明了进行突破性研究的必要性，以调查植物化学物质的药理学和安全性，并进行关于 的营养保健品开发研究。
