ChiltanPure Quinoa
ChiltanPure Quinoa is a cereal grain that’s distinctively healthy thanks to a number of unique properties. It is a whole grain that is rapidly growing in popularity due to its many health benefits. Quinoa is an edible seed that has become increasingly popular among health-conscious people. It’s loaded with many important nutrients.
It contains large amounts of flavonoids, including quercetin and kaempferol. These are potent plant antioxidants with numerous health benefits. Additionally, a cup of quinoa will also provide twice the protein and about 5 grams more fiber than the same amount of white rice. Due to this higher quantity of protein and fiber, quinoa is not only the healthier choice, but will also fill you up faster, allowing for smaller portion sizes.
It is gluten-free, high in protein and one of the few plant foods that contain sufficient amounts of all nine essential amino acids.. It is also high in fiber, magnesium, B vitamins, iron, potassium, calcium, phosphorus, vitamin E and various beneficial antioxidants.
The gluten-free pseudo-grain is ideal to boost heart health and digestion. It may also help maintain blood sugar level and aid sustainable weight loss. In fact, experts and health practitioners often recommend including good amount of quinoa in weight loss diets in place of high-carb grains.
