Amaranth is a millet-like grain and has a long history. The Aztecs, Mayas, and Incas ate the seeds as porridge and in the form of a drink. Amaranth has since spread to many continents and is cultivated in North and South America, Asia, and Africa.
Both as a seed extract and as an oil, amaranth has a number of positive effects on the skin. It helps to increase skin's elasticity and to minimize fine lines and wrinkles.
