Spicy And Moist Tapioca Chips is a popular snack loved by Malaysians of all ages. It is made from tapioca tuber, whereby the inner rind and outer skin are removed. Then it is thinly sliced, deep fried and mixed  with ‘sambal chilli’ which is a spicy and sweet sauce.

Here’s a look at the nutritional information for tapioca.

1. FREE OF COMMON ALLERGENS

Tapioca is gluten-free, nut-free, and grain-free. It won’t cause problems for people with celiac disease, gluten sensitivity, and nut allergies. Tapioca flour can be found in many gluten-free products. It’s a good option for allergen-free baking at home. It’s also an alternative to white flour for thickening soups, sauces, and pie fillings.

2. CHOLESTEROL-FREE

Tapioca is cholesterol-free. High cholesterol may cause a buildup of plaque in your arteries, which is known as atherosclerosis. Left unchecked, atherosclerosis may lead to angina, heart attack, and stroke.

3. HAS DIETARY FIBER

A cup of tapioca pearls has about 1.5 grams of dietary fiber. It’s not a lot, but it can help you meet the daily recommended value of 21 to 38 grams. Most people don’t consume nearly enough fiber. Yet fiber offers many health benefits such as lowering cholesterol, maintaining blood sugar levels, and preventing constipation.

4. IS EASY TO DIGEST

Tapioca is known for being easy on the stomach. Many people find it easier to digest than flours made with grains or nuts. Tapioca may be recommended as a source of calories and energy during digestive flares from conditions such as irritable bowel syndrome and diverticulitis.

5. SUPPORTS WEIGHT GAIN

If you need to gain weight fast, tapioca may help. One cup of tapioca pearls has 544 calories and 135 carbs.
