Did you know - The best thing about sweet corn is that it is a gluten-free cereal, similar to rice and quinoa, making it a suitable for being consumed by those on a gluten-free diet. Slightly on the higher side, it contains 86 calories per 100 grams, when compared to other vegetables. But, fresh sweet corn is lower in calories than other cereal grains like wheat, rice, etc, which still makes it the healthier choice. Most of the calorie content comes from simple carbohydrates like glucose, sucrose rather than complex sugars like amylose and amylopectin, which is a case in the cereals, and what we should try and cut down. That apart, sweet corn is a good source of dietary fiber, vitamins, and antioxidants in addition to minerals in moderate proportions.
