Triticale Grain Is Healthier Than Soybeans and Yogurt Combined!

Triticale is a unique hybrid of wheat and rye that has allowed many developing countries to achieve agricultural self-sufficiency. First attempted in 1875 by a Scottish biologist, the idea was brought to fruition by Norman Borlaug in the 1960s. According to the University of Manitoba, triticale is healthier than soybeans and yogurt combined. It’s higher in protein than wheat or rye, and has a more healthful amino acid balance. It has double the lysine as wheat.
 

Because triticale is a non-oily grain, it can be purchased at a health food store and stored in your cupboard. Preparing it requires at least forty to fifty minutes of cooking time.

Grains, when used in moderation, are highly nutritious and a great source of long-term energy. However, if you don’t exercise and eat too much grain, it can form mucus in your system that will reduce your energy, concentration, and health. In the United States, because we are largely a sedentary people, smaller amounts of grain are almost dictated for good health.

Consider adding triticale to your diet instead of other grains. Do ensure that you space out your grains with lots of fresh fruits and vegetables. Triticale or other whole grains are much better for you than processed flour.
