About Fresh corn

Fresh corn is a versatile and nutritious staple with origins tracing back to Central and South America, where it has been cultivated for thousands of years. Packed with essential nutrients, corn is rich in B vitamins like thiamin and folate, supporting energy production and cell health. It contains dietary fiber that promotes digestion and can help regulate cholesterol levels. Corn is also a good source of antioxidants, such as lutein and zeaxanthin, which are beneficial for eye health. Low in fat and naturally gluten-free, it fits seamlessly into a variety of cuisines, including Mexican, American, and Southeast Asian. While sweet corn has a natural sugar content, it is generally nutrient-dense when eaten fresh and balanced with other healthy foods. Enjoy it boiled, grilled, or added to salads and soups for a delicious and wholesome addition to your meals.
