About Arrow roots

Arrowroot is a starchy, gluten-free, tuber-derived powder native to tropical regions of South America and the Caribbean. Known for its use in traditional and indigenous cuisines, it is often employed as a thickening agent in sauces, soups, and puddings due to its neutral flavor and smooth texture. Nutritionally, arrowroot is low in calories and rich in carbohydrates, making it a quick source of energy. It contains small amounts of potassium, B vitamins, and iron, contributing to healthy digestion and immune support. Its natural fiber can promote gut health and is easily digestible, making it a preferred option for individuals with sensitive stomachs or dietary restrictions. Additionally, arrowroot is free from common allergens like gluten and dairy, making it suitable for people with food sensitivities. While its high carbohydrate content means it should be consumed in moderation, arrowroot remains a versatile, nutritious addition to various diets.
