BENEFITS OF CONSUMING QUINOA
- Thanks to the lysine contained in quinoa, it improves immune and gastric function. In addition, it helps the formation of antibodies, cell repair, and calcium absorption.
- Quinoa is made up of two phytoestrogens, daidzein and genistein, which help prevent osteoporosis.
- 6% of the total weight of the grain is fiber, which favors intestinal transit, reduces LDL cholesterol (or bad cholesterol) and raises HDL cholesterol (or good cholesterol).
- Being a cereal, it has the property of absorbing water so that a feeling of satiety is achieved, contributing to weight loss. Great if you are on a diet!
- Quinoa is very good for celiac disease patients to manage gluten tolerance by improving bowel functions.
