Similar to spinach in vitamins and mineral contents, it also seems to have some oxalic acid, just like spinach. (I forgot to mention that earlier in my spinach submission), so some caution is recommended. By the way it is Chenopodium album. When a character is used to name a species, it has to agree with the gender of the genus (Rosa alba, Chenopodium album, Mallotus albus’ Oryza sativa, Allium sativum, Lathyrus sativus) unless it is a tree (tree in classical Latin is Feminine, so would be the names (Pinus wallichiana, Malus domestica, Prunus persica) please validate these names put in Bangla script:
