Benefits of nixtamalization
nixtamalization provides several nutritional benefits including:
Increased bioavailability of vitamin B3 niacin, which reduces the risk of pellagra disease.
Increased calcium intake, due to its absorption by the kernels during the steeping process.
Increased resistant starch content in food products, which serves as a source of dietary fiber.
Significantly reduced presence of mycotoxins such as fumonisins and aflatoxins.
Increased bioavailability of iron, which decreases the risk of anemia.
These nutritional and health benefits are especially important in areas where maize is the dietary staple and the risk of aflatoxins is high, as removal of the pericarp is thought to help reduce aflatoxin contamination levels in maize kernels by up to 60% when a load is not highly contaminated.

Our story
It all began in the mind of a humble village girl’s mind, inspired by Mexican authentic food preparation traditions while studying in the USA. Together with her husband, established Bdelo in 2010 and has grown to a regional supplier of high quality healthy and tasty maize based foods and snacks. Growing up in a community of dedicated maize growers, the founder Ms Jebiwot Bischof sees Bdelo as a continuation of her parents and community’s legacy and heritage.
