Starch is the most common carbohydrate in the human diet and is contained in many staple foods. The major sources of starch intake worldwide are the cereals (rice, wheat, and maize) and the root vegetables (potatoes and cassava).
From a nutritional standpoint, tapioca starch doesn't really stand out. A portion of 100 grams contains 360 calories, which are mostly carbohydrates. Cassava flour does not provide significant amounts of protein, fatty acids, vitamins or minerals. In short, its nutritional profile is very similar to wheat flour.
