Corn is a Good Source of Fiber
One cup of corn provides 18.4% of the daily recommendation of fiber. Its high fiber content is one of the biggest benefits of corn. Fiber has been shown to help lower cholesterol levels and help reduce the risk of colon cancer. Fiber is also useful in helping to lower blood sugar levels in diabetics.
Adding More Corn to Your Diet
How do you get the benefits of corn when it's not mid-summer and corn on the cob is not plentiful? You can still get the benefits of corn from corn that has been frozen when it is fresh.
Try corn as side dish saut?ed with green chilies and onions. Add frozen corn to soup, chili and chowder. Use corn tortillas instead of flour tortillas. The addition of corn a couple of times a week to your diet will have healthful benefits.
