There are different types of grains available with unique nutrients such as wheat, oats, rice, maize, millet, barley and rye. Amaranth is a type of grain that has been cultivated for more than 8,000 years. Though it is considered as a weed by most of the world, it is being grown like a vegetable and a grain-like seed for more than thousand years. Amaranth grain was once considered to be the staple food of Maya, Inca and Aztec civilizations. These civilizations also include these seeds in their religious rituals. Amaranth is not a widely cultivated grain, but its demand is growing owing to the number of nutrients that are present in it. Amaranth is mostly cultivated in Latin America, Northern America and some parts of India.
