What is Amaranth? What are the Benefits of Amaranth?

Amaranth is a complete and excellent source of plant-based protein that contains all essential amino acids, including "lysine," which the body cannot produce on its own. Furthermore, it contains 3 times more calcium than ordinary grains, dense amounts of iron, magnesium, and "squalene," which is a powerful antioxidant.

No, amaranth is naturally 100% gluten-free. With this feature, it is an excellent carbohydrate and protein alternative that can be used instead of wheat, barley, or rye for Celiac patients, those with gluten intolerance, and those suffering from bloating problems.

Thanks to its high fiber content, it regulates the digestive system and prevents constipation. It helps with weight control (diets) by creating a feeling of fullness. Through the phytosterols it contains (especially squalene), it protects cardiovascular health by lowering bad cholesterol (LDL). At the same time, it fights against osteoporosis with its high calcium content.
