Grow your own gluten-free carbohydrates with these simple, low-GI garden staples.
In short: Discover two versatile, gluten-free, low-GI plants you can cultivate in your own backyard. This Gardening Australia segment offers practical advice for home gardeners looking to diversify their vegetable patches with nutrient-conscious options.
The segment highlights two specific plants: arrowroot (Canna indica cv.) and cocoyam (Xanthosoma sagittifolium). Both serve as excellent gluten-free, low-GI carbohydrate sources for those managing dietary restrictions.
Featured in Season 36, Episode 4 of Gardening Australia, titled 'Autumn: Fabulous Flowers & Urban Farmers,' the guide emphasizes ease of growth. However, gardeners should verify local regulations before planting, as these species may be classified as environmental weeds in certain regions.
