“Forgotten Grains” explores the exciting resurgence of ancient grains like amaranth, millet, and quinoa, highlighting their potential to revolutionize modern diets and agricultural practices. Once vital staples, these grains are now being rediscovered for their unique nutritional profiles and resilience.

Did you know that many of these grains boast higher protein and fiber content compared to common grains like wheat and rice? Furthermore, their cultivation often requires less water and fewer pesticides, making them a sustainable alternative for our planet.

The book progresses from the historical origins of these grains to an in-depth analysis of their nutritional and health benefits, drawing from biology, life sciences, and nutritional science. It emphasizes the role of dietary diversity and food security, especially in the face of climate change.

With an interdisciplinary approach, it combines scientific research with practical applications, showing how these forgotten grains can contribute to a more sustainable and nutritionally balanced food system.

The book concludes with real-world examples and case studies, demonstrating the impact of these grains on various communities.
