Native of Natural offers Premium Arrowroot Powder (often spelled "Arraroot" or "Ararot"), a high-quality, grain-free starch extracted from the tropical rhizomes of the Maranta arundinacea plant. It is widely recognized as the most effective and healthy alternative to cornstarch. Our Arrowroot is processed through a traditional, chemical-free extraction method: the roots are washed, crushed into a pulp, and the starch is naturally separated through water filtration and air-drying. This preserves the starch's purity and high digestibility, ensuring a "clean-label" ingredient for both culinary and cosmetic use. Key Features 100% Grain-Free & Gluten-Free: Naturally free from common allergens, making it the preferred choice for Paleo, Keto, and Gluten-Free diets. Easy on Digestion: Known for its "demulcent" properties, it is extremely gentle on the stomach and traditionally used to soothe digestive upsets. Neutral Flavor & Clear Finish: Unlike cornstarch, it does not have a "starchy" taste and provides a glossy, crystal-clear finish to sauces and glazes. Effective Moisture Absorbent: In cosmetics, it acts as a smooth, lightweight alternative to talc, absorbing oils and moisture without clogging pores. Resistant to Acid: Maintains its thickening power even when mixed with acidic ingredients like citrus or vinegar.
