Description
Sweet Sorghum is a climate-resilient, tall cereal crop with stalks, which are rich in natural sugars. Traditionally chewed like sugarcane or processed into syrup. Nutritionally, it is high in antioxidants, iron, and it is gluten-free. The syrup is a rich source of energy, especially useful in anemia-prone populations. This is a great addition to a juicing plan as the sweetness of the stalks will overpower bitterness caused by Bitter Leaf, Ugu, and Scent Leaf.
