Spelt is a fiber-rich cereal with exceptional nutritional properties. It helps control blood sugar levels and contributes in other ways to the health of the heart.

Here are four curious facts about spelt:

1. It was named after a popular cereal in Ancient Rome, where it was used mainly for bread making;
2. It is rich in vitamin E, which is famous for its antioxidant properties;
3. It provides good doses of iron and calcium;
4. It is one of the least caloric types of wheat and contains the essential amino acid methionine, which is absent from almost all other cereals.
