Dietitian's Tips for Consuming Arrowhead

Metabolic Effect: Boasting a massive 922 mg of potassium per 100g, arrowhead is exceptional for regulating fluid balance and flushing out excess sodium. The 5.33 grams of plant protein also provides a valuable metabolic boost for maintaining lean muscle tissue.
Consumption Tip: I recommend roasting or boiling this starchy root as a cleaner alternative to potatoes while keeping fat intake near its natural 0.29g. Since a serving contains 20.23g of carbohydrates, it should replace other starches on your plate to keep your macros in check.
What to Watch For: Because it contains zero fiber, it is vital to pair arrowhead with high-fiber vegetables to prevent rapid digestion and ensure gut health. Clients with kidney concerns should be mindful of the high potassium levels and consult with me regarding portion sizes.
Exercise Equivalent: Burning the 99 calories from a 100g portion is as simple as a brisk 15-minute walk. Additionally, the 2.57 mg of iron it provides helps optimize oxygen delivery to your muscles during your daily activities.
