Poha — Light, Wholesome & Versatile Breakfast from Medhavi SuperFoods
What is Poha?
Poha, also known as flattened rice (or “chuda/atukulu” in some Indian languages), is rice that has been parboiled, flattened into thin flakes, and dried. At Medhavi SuperFoods, we bring you carefully processed, premium-quality poha that retains the natural rice goodness, while being easy to cook, light on the stomach, and full of comforting flavour — perfect for quick breakfasts or snacks.
Why Choose Medhavi Poha?
-
Quick & Easy Preparation: Simply rinse or soak the flakes for a few minutes — poha softens easily and cooks faster than regular rice, saving your morning time.
-
Gentle & Digestible: Light on the stomach, easy to digest — ideal as a breakfast, a light meal, or even as comfort food during digestive troubles.
-
Naturally Gluten-Free: Since poha is rice-based, it fits well into gluten-free diets.
-
Nutritious Energy & Iron Source: Poha provides good-quality carbohydrates for sustained energy, and thanks to the parboiling & flattening process, it retains iron — an excellent benefit, especially for those prone to iron deficiency.
