Corn, also known as maize, is a cereal grain that originated in Mesoamerica and is now widely cultivated throughout the world. It has a tall, sturdy stalk with large, flat leaves and produces ears that are covered in tightly packed rows of kernels. Corn is a good source of carbohydrates, fiber, vitamins, and minerals, including thiamine, folate, and vitamin C. Eating corn promotes healthy digestion, supporting eye health, and reducing the risk of chronic diseases such as heart disease and diabetes.
