What is cassava?

Cassava is a nutty-flavored, starchy root vegetable or tuber. Native to South America, it’s a major source of calories and carbs for people in many countries. Nigeria, Thailand, and Indonesia are the top cassava-producing countries in the world (1Trusted Source).

It’s grown in tropical regions around the world because of its ability to withstand difficult growing conditions. In fact, it’s one of the most drought-tolerant crops (2Trusted Source).

Although both sweet and bitter varieties of cassava are available, sweet cassava is more common in the United States, where it’s often referred to as yuca, manioc, or Brazilian arrowroot.

The most commonly consumed part of the cassava plant is the root, which is incredibly versatile. You can eat it whole, grated, or ground into flour to use it in bread and crackers.

Cassava root is also used to produce tapioca, a type of starch, as well as garri, a product similar to tapioca.

Individuals with food allergies can benefit from using cassava root in cooking and baking because it’s free of gluten, grains, and nuts.

It’s important to note is that you must cook cassava root before eating it, as it can be poisonous if consumed raw.

Cassava may be dangerous if consumed raw, in large amounts, or if prepared improperly.

Raw cassava contains chemicals called cyanogenic glycosides. If eaten, these can release cyanide into your body.

Regularly consuming cyanogenic glycosides or eating them in high amounts increases the risk of. Cyanide poisoning is associated with impaired thyroid and nerve function, paralysis, organ damage, and even death 

Because protein helps rid the body of cyanide, those who have an overall poor nutrition status and low protein intake are more likely to experience these effects.
