Frequently Asked Questions

Is farro or quinoa more nutrient-dense?

Although quinoa is an excellent source of fiber and protein, farro contains almost twice as much of both of these nutrients. However, quinoa contains all nine essential amino acids and it is rich in antioxidants, so both grains have different nutritional compositions.
