Quinoa is healthy and delicious. Up until now, I’ve only enjoyed it as a side dish at fancy restaurants, usually paired with duck, lamb, or veal.
But it turns out that quinoa may actually be the next “superfood.” It may also be quite effective for losing weight (more details below).
But first, here’s a quick video on how to prepare quinoa at home:
Now, if you’re looking to lose weight, and you’ve struggled with other diets, then quinoa may be especially appealing to you.
First of all, it’s 100% gluten-free. If you are allergic to wheat or if you’ve been diagnosed gluten-intolerant, then quinoa is an ideal substitute.
Secondly, this South American grain is high in protein, essential amino acids, and iron. In fact, it contains 14 grams of protein for every 100-gram serving.
And thirdly, quinoa has been used to control weight loss since pre-Columbian days. The Incas even considered it to be a “sacred grain.”
In fact, it was recently called “one of the world’s superfoods” by the United Nations. Unlike its extremely popular friend from Brazil, the Acai berry, quinoa has no sugar and still tastes great, which makes it perfect for diabetics (or anybody else who’s trying to cut back on sugar).

never heard of quinoa but it looks good.i like rice and quinoa looks like a good alternative looks easy to prepare to.

I discovered quinoa when my girlfriend was dieting and brought it home one day. Quinoa is a great way to add bulk to your meals without adding the calories. Quinoa is low calorie almost carb free and high in protein so is perfect for any diet as it leaves you feeling fuller for longer as protein takes longer to digest. I love quinoa with a dollop of pesto mixed in…
Thanks so much for info. I love quinoa and I think I will try it out! :)
I tell people about quinoa all the time – it’s almost like one of those complete foods, and such a great way for vegetarians ro keep up their protein intake…
Wow, I had no idea Quinoa was such a super food. Now that the weather has gotten hot, I have not been in the mood for heavy meals that include meat, but I still need the protein. Thanks for this great info on Quiona, I’ll definitely be adding making it soon!
This is very interesting, I have been hearing about this mystery food for a few weeks now. I have been on a superfood craze with acai and lycopene and flaxseed…now I have another one to add to my superfood library! What caught my eye is that it’s low in sugar and even pleasing to the taste buds…good to hear! Well im going to try it.
Thanks for the great suggestion, I will try to work this into my diet and maybe it will help my figure too….
Because of all of the great qualities of Quinoa I created a 100% organic Vegan Burger with Quinoa and vegetables that is now sold in Whole Foods Markets in PA, NJ and Maryland as well as other health food stores. It is a quick, easy, nutritious meal for the entire family.
