10 Health Benefits of Arrowroot

10. Incorporating Arrowroot Into Your Diet

Ready to start incorporating more arrowroot into your diet? You may choose to purchase it whole and add it to your regular meals in place of white potatoes or yams. If you enjoy baking, arrowroot flour may be substituted for wheat fiber in many recipes, although you might need to experiment a bit with your measurements. Arrowroot powder may also be added to a healthy smoothie with other fruits, vegetables, or Greek yogurt. It can be used to thicken soups and sauces, and even in place of eggs as a binder in plant-based recipes.
