A rheumatologist named Nazira Khalimbetova has revealed a grain that helps normalize the functioning of the intestines and relieves constipation, making it a "edible gold". She emphasizes the importance of including quinoa in one's diet.
According to the specialist, the grain in question is quinoa. These small seeds are rich in vitamins, amino acids, and probiotic fibers.
Quinoa is a favorite food of beneficial microorganisms that reside in our intestines and play a key role in maintaining the immune system and normal gastrointestinal function, Khalimbetova explained.
Khalimbetova noted that quinoa has a pleasant taste with a slight nutty flavor, which makes it suitable for not only soups and salads but also desserts.
Quinoa is a grain crop from the amaranth family, cultivated by the Incas in the Andes about 5,000 years ago, which is why it is sometimes called Peruvian rice. The Incas considered it a sacred staple.
