Gluten-free and great for people with gluten intolerance
Top 4 in Top 7 Health Benefits of Quinoa
Some patients with gluten intolerance, including celiac disease and non-celiac gluten sensitivity, must avoid gluten-containing foods. Gluten-free diets require gluten-free replacements for gluten-containing cereals such as wheat, barley, and rye. Quinoa is naturally gluten-free, making it a healthful option for anyone who wants or needs to exclude gluten from their diet.
Unlike gluten-free products made with refined ingredients, quinoa is a good source of nutrients that gluten-free diets often lack, like:
- fiber
- folate
- zinc
- magnesium
