Quinoa: Nutrition Facts and Calories
This category covers packaged quinoa products. Quinoa is a pseudocereal, often used as a grain substitute. Products may include plain cooked quinoa, ready to eat, or dried quinoa grains. The ingredient list typically shows quinoa as the primary ingredient. Where other ingredients are present, their position indicates their proportion. Nutrition labels provide information on energy, fat, saturates, carbohydrates, sugars, protein, and salt per serving. For products where whole grains are a consideration, the ingredient list will show whole quinoa. The NHS Eatwell Guide recommends that foods high in fat, salt and sugar should be eaten less often and in small amounts. Salt content is declared on UK nutrition labels. Free sugars should not exceed 5% of total dietary energy, and adults should have no more than 6 g of salt a day. Quinoa itself is a source of fibre and protein. All values are shown per 100 g so products can be compared.
