American corn

Corn is a healthy grain and source of fiber, vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. It may promote eye and digestive health. Refined corn products, however, such as tortilla chips, offer fewer health benefits.

Corn is mainly composed of carbs and fairly high in fiber. It also packs a decent amount of low-quality protein.
