Quinoa contains almost twice as much fiber as grains. Therefore, it perfectly fills the stomach and takes longer for the body to process, which causes longer satiety. It contains both soluble and insoluble fiber, which means that it not only cleans the intestinal wall of toxic deposits (insoluble fiber), but also enters the body (soluble fiber), where it helps regulate blood sugar and lipid levels.
