Product description
Usually considered to be a whole grain but it is a seed. Can be consumed like whole grains such as rice or barley but takes less time to cook than other whole grains about 10 to 15 minutes. Gluten-free and cholesterol-free.
- The 3 Mixed Quinoa consists of 3 colours of Quinoa. Quinoa is known as a super-grain as it has many health benefits. It is rich in complex carbohydrates that slowly digest and keep you satiated for longer while keeping your blood sugar constant.
- Being protein rich, it contains all nine essential amino acids required by the body for tissue growth and repair. The uniqueness lies in lysine, a rare amino acid not found in many other grains, which makes protein levels in quinoa comparable to those in milk.
- Quinoa is higher in fibre than most other grains, cholesterol free and gluten free. Being nutrient rich, it also contains iron and is high in riboflavin (B2), manganese and magnesium.
- Extremely low in fat compared to other grains. Any fat present is mostly healthy fat made up of essential fatty acids such as omega-3 fatty acid that promote further fat burning while keeping you full for much longer.
Higher in nutritional content and a good alternative to rice, couscous or pasta. Equivalent to protein content in milk. The 3 Mixed Quinoa is good for breakfast cereal or a gourmet dinner.
