Quinoa is the common name for chenopodium quinoa of the flowering plant family Amaranthaceous. It is grown as grain crops primarily for its edible seeds. Quinoa is closely related to species such as beetroots and spinach and to amaranth, Quinoa originated in the Andean region of Peru, Bolivia, Ecuador, Colombia and Chile.

There are many health benefits of having Quinoa. Here are the few:
