Unlike rice or wheat, which are low in lysine, quinoa contains a balanced content of essential amino acids. This means that we need less quinoa protein than wheat protein for our needs. Although it’s actually a seed, quinoa is considered a whole grain and a good source of fiber. Quinoa also contains omega 3 fats, which do not harm the heart. It is also a good source of phosphorus and has a lot of magnesium and iron. It does not contain gluten and is easily digested.
