MIAMI - GoldFoods
USA (www.goldfoodsusa.com) brings
the nutritional properties of quinoa and its high content of omega 3 and 6 to
school lunches with its new product launches Quinoa Pop and Quinoa Flakes, two
healthy options that will be presented at the Natural Products Expo East 2015
to be held from September 16-19 in Baltimore, Maryland.
Known by the Incas as the "mother of all
grains", quinoa is rich in fatty acids like omega 3 and 6, amino acids,
fiber, antioxidants and vitamin B which makes it an excellent food source for
children who can now bring it along in their lunchboxes as flakes and pops.
According to figures from the Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC) the prevalence of obesity in children between 3 and 19 years
old in the United States is currently 17.5%.
"The childhood obesity numbers are alarming. Raising awareness
about this issue is the first step toward adopting a healthier lifestyle for
our children," said Juan Pablo Altamirano, president of GoldFoods USA, a
company committed to promoting the well-being and health of families through
wholesome and nutritious food alternatives.
GoldFoods USA is participating for the second year in Natural
Products Expo East (Booth 620) with
a selection of organic and natural products grown in Bolivia including white,
red and black quinoa; quinoa flour and its acclaimed production of chia, both grounded
as well as in seeds.
GoldFoods USA
works with farmers in Santa Cruz, Bolivia, to provide a premium quality of its
natural and organic products that are grown respecting the natural ripening
process of the grains in an area with a particularly favorable climate.
"Chia
produced in Bolivia generally contains nutritional and microbiological values
that are more stable than in other South American countries since we grow and harvest our seeds in a subtropical climate where
rainfalls are limited and frosts are nonexistent. These conditions give our seeds
many of their precious qualities including
high amounts of omega 3 and omega 6,” said Altamirano, an entrepreneur with over 20 years
of experience in the agricultural industry.
With
30% of its production being organic, the company's mission is to offer a
product of the highest quality that reaches consumers in its best natural state.
