About White corn

White corn, a staple in many global cuisines, is revered for its mild flavor and tender texture. Originating primarily from Central and South America, it is a key ingredient in dishes like tortillas, tamales, and corn pudding. Packed with essential nutrients, white corn is a good source of dietary fiber, which promotes digestion, and contains vitamins such as B-complex vitamins and folate, supporting energy production and cell function. It delivers antioxidants like lutein and zeaxanthin, which contribute to eye health. Low in fat, it is naturally gluten-free, making it suitable for those with dietary restrictions. However, white corn is relatively starchy and higher on the glycemic index, which means it can affect blood sugar levels if consumed in excess. Enjoyed in balance, white corn is a versatile and nutritious part of a healthy diet.
