🥣 Momazone Proso Millet – The Grain of Wellness! 🌾 ✅ 100% Natural | Gluten-Free | High in Fiber | Vegan | Protein-Rich

These two crops have gained a reputation for being highly nutritious over the past few years, and there are many mentions of them on the internet. Actually, I have grown these 10 years ago. Both were difficult. Quinoa is cultivated at an altitude of 3,000m, and cannot be harvested at an altitude of several tens of meters above sea level. Amaranthus, although the seeds are small, grow to a height of about 2m, and the wind easily knocks them over, making it impossible to harvest.

Quinoa belongs to the Chenopodiaceae family, and amaranth belongs to the Amaranthaceae family, and I thought they were completely different plants. As a result of recent botanical research, Chenopodiaceae is included in Amaranthaceae and seems to be a similar plant. The old Chenopodiaceae (Amaranthaceae) is called Chenopodiaceae.

Here, I have created a table of nutritional components of quinoa, amaranth, and white rice, so I will post it. Although it is self-evident, white rice is the residue of brown rice after the nutrients have been removed, so its nutritional value is low. Maybe that's why, in almost all the items mentioned here, there is no item where white rice surpasses quinoa and amaranth, and quinoa and amaranth are competing at a high level. The nutritional value of both will be antagonistic, and the difference in significant figures will be.

Below is the description on wiki about quinoa and amaranthus.

Quinoa, like other millet grains, has a high nutritional value, and amaranth, which is closely related to quinoa, contains 13-14% protein as well as oats, pearl barley, and rye. Quinoa and amaranth contain more minerals such as magnesium, phosphorus, and iron, as well as B vitamins than other grains. In particular, folic acid contains an amount comparable to green and yellow vegetables. In recent years, it has been attracting attention as a health food in Europe and Japan.

Quinoa

In ancient South America, such as the Inca civilization, the seeds were edible as grain. It was an important crop comparable to maize and beans. In the 19th century, it began to be cultivated on a large scale in India and elsewhere. It was introduced to Japan during the Edo period, mainly for ornamental purposes. In the Tohoku region, albeit on a small scale, it was also cultivated for food under names such as Akaawa.
