The 6 Best Alternative Grains

• http://www.globalhealingcenter.com

An added problem with corn is that it's often genetically modified, a practice that presents its own concerns. And, of course, for many people, the gluten content in wheat does a terrible number on their digestive system. Fortunately, there are several alternative grains that provide better nutrition without the problems.

The Top 6 Grain Alternatives

Here are a few alternative grains you should give a try. Note that these grains do not contain gluten, a hard-to-digest protein that interferes with thyroid health.

1. Quinoa

Considered a seed by most botanists, quinoa is quickly becoming one of the most popular alternative grains in the United States. This ancient food, heralded by the Incas, contains all essential amino acids and is a complete protein. [1] It's high in fiber (much more so than rice and wheat), and is gluten free. Quinoa can be used to replace rice or steel-cut oats.
