Description:

Terere (Amaranthus) is a highly nutritious leafy green vegetable with numerous health benefits.  It is rich in vitamins A, C, and K, iron, calcium, and antioxidants, supporting strong immunity, healthy bones, proper vision, and overall wellness.

Bone and Heart Health: Terere is exceptionally high in calcium—five times more than milk—and contains vitamin K, which supports bone strength and heart health by reducing bad cholesterol. 

Anemia Prevention: Its high iron content helps prevent iron-deficiency anemia and supports red blood cell formation. 

Pregnancy Support: Rich in folate, terere is ideal for pregnant women, helping prevent birth defects and supporting fetal development. 

Weight Management: Low in calories and high in fiber, it aids in satiety and healthy weight control.

Immune and Skin Health: Antioxidants like lutein, zeaxanthin, and β-carotene protect against oxidative stress, reduce inflammation, and support eye and skin health.

Plant-Based Protein: The leaves and seeds are excellent sources of plant-based protein, making them valuable for vegetarians and vegans.
