Quinoa has recently gain popularity since the declaration of International Year of Quinoa in 2013. However, there are still limited reviews on quinoa in terms of nutrition and health. Thus, the aim of this 10-year systematic review is to assess the nutritional profile and potential health benefits of quinoa. PubMed search was done on 10 January 2024 and 164 papers were identified within the past 10 years (1 January 2014 to 1 January 2024). After exclusions, a total of 35 papers were included in this systematic review. The 35 papers were categorised into three main themes: (a) effects of processing techniques, (b) potential health benefits, and (c) genotype and phenotype variation.
