USDA Organic Certified Gluten-Free Non-GMO Project Verified Kosher Cholesterol Free Very Low Sodium Ancient Grains Ancient grains are unlike any other food out there. Not only are they nutrient-dense, naturally gluten-free and wildly versatile-seriously, there's not much you can't do with these guys-but they're also 100% whole grain and 100% deliciously satisfying. Sometimes called heritage or heirloom grains, ancient grains date back thousands of years and have remained practically unchanged since their origin. Perfect for folks looking for healthier meal options (Meatless Mondays, anyone?), and especially vegetarians, flexitarians and those living with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity, ancient grains provide a stellar source of plant-based protein. They also boast fiber, phytonutrients and many vitamins and minerals. What is Quinoa Quin-what?! That's the question that's crossing many-a-mind as this gluten-free grain skyrockets into popularity. Non-GMO, organic quinoa is the cornerstone of Ancient Harvest products, and it's easy to see why. With its mild flavor and light crunch, quinoa is the perfect gluten-free substitute for pasta, rice or couscous. It's also frequently milled into gluten-free flour that can be used in baking, or as the base for gluten-free pastas, cereals and more. Quinoa is native to Bolivia and is a relative of Swiss chard, spinach and beets-bet you didn't know that. What's more, it's comes in three varieties (whole grain white, red and black) and it's a nutritional powerhouse. Just one cup contains 8g of protein, 5g of fiber, 15% DV iron, 30% DV magnesium, 19% DV folate and heart-healthy omega 3 fatty acids. Quinoa is also a complete protein, which means it provides all nine essential amino acids necessary for good health, hence the name "essential." Your body can't produce these nutrients itself, so you have to get them frequently through food. Amino acids support strong muscles, keep their immune systems in tip-top shape and do lots of other stuff to keep their bodies healthy-thing is, not all plant-based proteins are created equal. Wheat, rice and most other grains are missing one or more essential amino acids, but quinoa is a one-stop shop. Nice, right? Suddenly the word "wholesome" takes on a whole new meaning.
