Research & Evidence
Nymphaeoside A is a glycosylated phenolic constituent isolated from the flowers of the blue lotus, Nymphaea caerulea. It is an obscure compound, and little beyond its identification and chemical structure has been established. (Although grouped here under “flavonoids,” its reported structure is that of a glycoside built around a phenylpropanoid-type aglycone rather than a classical flavone.)
