Isn\u2019t that reason enough? Quinoa has lysine, which helps the body absorb all that fat-burning calcium and also helps produce carnitine, a nutrient responsible for converting fatty acids into energy and helping to lower cholesterol. Quinoa is fibre rich hence keeps you fuller longer and helps to balance blood sugar. \u00a0Quinoa is also a storehouse of minerals like manganese, potassium, phosphorus, copper, zinc, vitamin E and B6, riboflavin, niacin and thiamine. It has calcium which helps build bones and is a great anti oxidant. \u00a0It has more calcium than cow\u2019s milk, is an excellent antioxidant, and also rich in dietary fibre and iron. Quinoa is a very good source of magnesium and, therefore, said to be beneficial for people suffering from migraine headaches.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_515\" style=\"width: 535px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-515\" class=\"size-large wp-image-515\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kauveryhospital.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/Quinoa1-1024x455.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"525\" height=\"233\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.kauveryhospital.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/Quinoa1-1024x455.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.kauveryhospital.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/Quinoa1-300x133.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.kauveryhospital.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/Quinoa1-768x341.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.kauveryhospital.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/Quinoa1-600x267.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.kauveryhospital.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/Quinoa1.jpg 1498w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 525px) 100vw, 525px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-515\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Pic Courtesy: Creativeandhealthyfunfood<\/p><\/div>\n<p>the natives of South America.
