The ancient grain hailed as the 'healthiest carb' is one of the most nutritious foods you can eat [amaranth]

Experts are lauding another ancient grain that they say would be a welcome addition to any health-conscious kitchen pantry.

Amaranth is a pseudograin, technically a seed, packed with more nutrients than brown rice and quinoa, two wellness staples.

First cultivated by the Aztecs for its nutrition profile, the grain is also packed with health-boosting vitamins and minerals, with a 3.5oz portion containing a day's worth of manganese and about half the daily iron needs.

Studies have shown that consuming the grain may help to lower cholesterol levels, boost weight loss and slash inflammation.

Available from many health food stores and retailers such as Target and Walmart for around $15 for a 24oz bag, people can cook amaranth in the same way as rice or quinoa and mix it into meals like a stir-fry with vegetables.

Lindsay Schoenfeld, a registered dietitian in Texas, told the Daily Mail: 'Amaranth is a good source of fiber, iron, magnesium and antioxidants. It is also known for its quality protein, fiber, and gluten-free characteristics.

'It provides all nine essential amino acids, making it an excellent grain for plant-forward or vegetarian meals.'

She added, however, that it was best as part of a balanced diet, and said people should consider consuming the grain alongside a variety of other foods.

Islam sanitizes oppression. Islam rebrands cruelty as culture, and expects applause from Liberal fools for their Islamic progressivism.
You cannot "COEXIST" with people who want to kill you.
If they kill their own with no conscience, there is nothing to stop them from killing you.
Rational fear and anger at vicious murderous Islamic terrorists is the same as irrational antisemitism, according to the Leftists
