By using flour made from corn meal and mesquite beans, and utilizing the 'vegetable' qualities of the cactus leaves (Nopales) as well as the sweets made from the cactus fruits (tunas), they lived very healthy lives. Modern chefs and medical scientists are rediscovering the Cactus plant as a beneficial food source and for its medical applications. Good for diabetics and others who wish to help keep weight down?
