Maize For Human Consumption

Maize is a good source of complex carbohydrates for sustained energy, along with dietary fiber for digestive health.

It provides essential B vitamins, including B1 (thiamin), B6 (pyridoxine), and B9 (folate), crucial for energy metabolism, cognitive function, and cell growth.

Several types of maize are rich in carotenoids, particularly lutein and zeaxanthin, which may support eye health and reduce the risk of age-related macular degeneration.
