KAMUT is considered by some to be a super food. The name "KAMUT" is trademarked, which means it is a controlled grain and must always be organically grown and GMO free. In a recent study it was found that replacing the modern day wheat in one's diet with KAMUT caused improved metabolic health via the lowering of cholesterol and blood glucose (Sofi, Whittaker, Cesari et al., 2013).
