What it is

Quinoa sprout is the young shoot of the quinoa plant, which is grown from a quinoa seed. Quinoa itself is a flowering plant in the amaranth family, native to the Andes region of South America. The sprouts are typically grown in controlled environments and harvested when they are a few inches tall.

Why it's used

Quinoa sprouts are used in foods for their nutritional content and mild, slightly nutty flavor. They can add texture and a boost of nutrients to various products. They are often found in health-focused foods like protein powders, meal replacements, and baked goods mixes.

Health notes

Quinoa sprouts are generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as food. They are a source of vitamins, minerals, and fiber. International bodies like JECFA and EFSA have evaluated quinoa and its components, but specific evaluations of quinoa sprouts may vary. Evidence does not suggest adverse health effects from consuming quinoa sprouts at typical dietary levels.

Allergen info

Quinoa is not one of the nine major allergens recognized by the FDA. It is also naturally gluten-free.
