Description
Also known as the “Gold of the Incas,” quinoa has been a cultivated staple in the Andes region of South America for thousands of years. The Incan Empire believed it to be a sacred food and even referred to it as the “mother of all grains.” This important crop was highly valued by their ancient warriors who appreciated its ability to support healthy energy levels and good overall health in times of need, such as before a battle.
With its impressive nutritional profile, organic quinoa is one of the most protein-rich foods known to man. Unlike most grains, it contains all the essential amino acids, making it a perfect food for vegans, vegetarians and meat-eaters alike. Plus, it naturally contains no gluten and has a low glycemic index.
