Guest guest Posted August 4, 2002 Report Share Posted August 4, 2002 QUINOA: Nutritionally Charged Source: WholeHealthMed.com Although no single food can supply all of life's essential nutrients, quinoa comes close. One of the more popular " supergrains, " it is extraordinarily rich in nutrients, containing up to 50% more protein than most other grains. One of the best sources of vegetable protein in the vegetable kingdom, quinoa has a subtle, smoky flavor. It is a vegetarian source of calcium (26 mg per 1 cup serving), iron (4 mg per serving), and the B vitamins. Quinoa also contains high levels of lysine, an amino acid the body needs to make protein. http://www.Christian-Vegan-Cooking http://www. http://www.VintageVeganTea http://www.VeganMenus4HealthyLiving Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
