While I rarely even see it myself, I love purple corn! The natural bioactive molecules that give the corn its deep purple color are called anthocyanins. These bioactives can improve cognition, starve cancer, and reduce inflammation, among other health benefits. Another fun fact is that in Peru, they use the natural dye from purple corn to make a yummy drink called chicha morada! Have you seen purple corn before?
