Quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa ) is considered a pseudocereal or pseudograin. High nutritional value of Quinoa has been recognized since ancient times. For the record, I purchased quinoa flakes and enjoyed them as cereal :Quick and easy to make, tastes good.

What does NASA thinks about quinoa?
Because of its nutritional features, quinoa has the potential to be used as a crop in NASA’s Controlled Ecological Support Systems for use during long manned spaceflights (eg, to Mars). Full and complete nutrition can be accomplished with an appropriate selection of plant-based foods.
Quinoa is unrivalled in its qualities and nutritional ingredients, and a 1993 NASA report declared that “while no single food can supply all the life sustaining nutrients, quinoa comes close as any other in the plant and animal kingdom."

Obesity is a growing epidemic. It is atleast in part related to the increasing consumption of calories from beverages. In fact, beverage associated calories nearly doubled from 1965 through 2002.
Is It Leaky Gut or Leaky Gut Syndrome?
Duffy and colleagues examined the trends and patterns of beverage consumption among adults based on nationally representative Nationwide Food Consumption Surveys (1965, 1977 to 1978) and the National Health and Nutrition Surveys (1988 to 1994, 1999 to 2002).
There was an increase in percentage of calories from beverages from 11.8% in 1965 to 21% to 2002. Beverage patterns in 2002 were predominantly by a greater number of beverages as reflected by an increase in alcohol, soda, and diet beverages.
The authors concluded that an addressing the increased use of high calorie sweetened, nutrient-deficient beverages would be an important tool for weight management.
Note: Sugar free does not always mean calorie free!
