What it is

Organic sorghum is a type of grain that is grown in various parts of the world. It is a whole grain, meaning it contains all parts of the grain kernel: the bran, germ, and endosperm. Sorghum is naturally gluten-free and is often processed into flour, flakes, or popped like popcorn.

Why it's used

Sorghum flour is used in baking to create gluten-free breads, cookies, and other baked goods. Its mild, slightly sweet flavor and ability to absorb moisture make it a versatile ingredient in various food products, including snacks and breakfast items.

Health notes

Sorghum is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. It is a good source of fiber, protein, and various micronutrients. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated sorghum, and it is not associated with significant health controversies at typical consumption levels. Further research is ongoing regarding the potential benefits of whole grains like sorghum.
