Also known as yellow nutsedge, earth almond, and chufa, tiger nuts are a superfood that trace their origins in ancient Egypt. Although they are not related to the tiger or nuts family, these tubers pack quite a powerful punch that is deserving of their moniker; Imagine a single food that enriches your body with almost all the essential nutrients you need and more. Therefore, whether you prefer them as flour, ice cream, milk or whole, eating tiger nuts is a sure way to a healthier and happier life.

In this video, we have detailed 7 amazing health benefits of tiger nuts.

1. They Contain High Fiber Content
Fiber is an incredible and essential requirement in your body and should always make a significant portion of your diet. It contains a wide array of health benefits which include maintaining a healthy digestive system and making bowel movements much easier; this is what saves you from being constipated and other indigestion related conditions. Fiber also helps you check your body weight by increasing satiety; it makes you feel full faster and for a long period, therefore, reducing the need to eat more or frequently. Moreover, fiber regulates blood sugar and body cholesterol, keeping them at optimum levels. The good news is, tiger nuts contain higher amounts of dietary fiber than your typical fiber foods such as cabbage, oats and rice bran, making them a better option when it comes to optimizing your health.

2. They are a Rich Source of Magnesium
Magnesium is a critical mineral in your body, responsible for Initiation more than 300 biochemical reactions. A magnesium deficiency can have severe effects on your body including frequent muscle cramps, palpitations, seizures (even when you don’t have a seizure disorder), and a tingly sensation in your fingers and toes. This is because magnesium facilitates the proper functioning of your muscles and nerves. Therefore, tiger nuts provide the adequate amounts of magnesium needed for proper body functioning as it helps in regulating your heartbeat and therefore your blood pressure, working with protein to build and develop muscles for energy, and ensuring proper nerve impulses amongst other uses.
