Amaranth's amino acid composition has a favorable effect on the body's fat metabolism and thereby on the prevention of atherosclerosis. Its balanced, harmonious amino acid composition makes its protein content highly digestible (75%).
Amaranth is an excellent source of iron, calcium, magnesium, and zinc, as well as other trace elements. Researchers assign extremely high biological value to the iron content of amaranth among cereal grains. This may be justified by the fact that, unlike other cereal grains, it also contains vitamin C, which promotes iron absorption. Its calcium content not only exceeds that of milk but also represents the best source of biologically available calcium in food. It does not contain gluten, making it suitable for those with gluten sensitivities.
