I just have purple corn can eat fresh Purple corn is super food I bought the seeds from Thailand But the seed from Peru is the best The Thai seed take long to grow.. And the corn cob is smaller It taste soo good from Peru and Chile I eat the corn silk 😁 The silk is the corn ... it’s like the egg white Every silk string is attached to a corn kernel The pollen have to get on the silk for the cob to grow It’s superfood ... have antioxidants inside Antioxidants protect immune system in body Don’t make fat like regular corn Antioxidants prevent stress in body 😁😁😁♥️ Corn silk Tea is super food Lowers cholesterol in the blood and good for high blood pressure Corn Silk soup is good Good for kidney and diabetes and arthritis inflammation People throw the corn silk away, It’s diuretic so be careful if you have low blood pressure ... it will make you pee cause cleanse the kidney toxins
