Cactus Benefits and Side Effects

[Guest guest]

Here's a link to one site I checked about the cactus leaves. If you haven't heard of it, it may be because

it's a regional thing, and being in New Mexico, they are common in the produce sections.

But here's another question: if I can't locate Jerusalem artichokes, does anyone know of a viable alternative? Because it

seems to me that the crucial "detox" component of that one recipe is the cilantro. Yes? No? (By the way, a bit of cilantro works nicely with the carrot/apple combo).

Thanks!Ev
