In the world of superfoods, options abound: maca, quinoa, acai, spirulina... But there's a little-known Latin American treasure that has it all: the chontaduro.
What sets it apart?
Unlike many imported superfoods that require long journeys and processing, chontaduro is sustainably and communally grown in Colombia , promoting local economies and responsible practices. In addition:
-
It has a high antioxidant content , similar to that of açai.
-
Its omega 3, 6 and 9 profile is comparable to that of chia or flaxseed.
-
It provides fiber, iron, potassium and magnesium , surpassing many cereals and roots.
-
Its culinary versatility allows it to be used in sweet, savory, liquid or baked recipes .
