Science shows that blue cornmeal seems to be
nutritionally superior to white or yellow cornmeal. It has 20% more protein than yellow cornmeal and a much lower glycemic index. Making blue cornmeal a healthier option!
The natural antioxidants present in blue maize may help protect against metabolic syndrome, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and cancer, raising interest in using blue maize as a component of functional foods and nutraceuticals.
A recent study shows that when rats on a
high-sugar & high-cholesterol diet were given blue maize extract,their
systolic blood pressure, high density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol, and triglyceride levels significantly improved compared to those not given the extract. Rats fed the blue maize extract
had a significantly smaller increase in abdominal fat compared to the abdominal fat gain in rats that did not receive the extract.
"Anti-obesity food materials are always in demand, and this study brings out not only the importance of blue maize in controlling adipocity, but also the potential role of cholesterol in the development of obesity." -Sampath Parthasarathy, MBA, PhD, Florida Hospital Chair in Cardiovascular Sciences and Interim Associate Dean, College of Medicine, University of Central Florida.
