What it is
Quinoa powder is made from quinoa, a grain-like crop grown for its edible seeds. The seeds are typically cooked and then dried and milled into a fine powder. It is a good source of protein and fiber.
Why it's used
Quinoa powder is used as a protein and nutrient supplement in foods like energy drinks, protein powders, and meal replacements. It can also be used as a gluten-free flour alternative in baked goods, contributing to texture and nutritional value.
Health notes
The FDA lists quinoa as Generally Recognized As Safe (GRAS). Quinoa powder is a nutrient-dense food, providing protein, fiber, and various micronutrients. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated quinoa and its components. Evidence suggests quinoa can be part of a healthy diet, but specific health claims require careful consideration of the whole diet.
Allergen info
Quinoa is not one of the nine major allergens recognized by the FDA. It is also naturally gluten-free.
