Amaranth can be added to other plant protein sources to create whole protein.  It also contains cancer-fighting phytochemical squalene. In studies, the antioxidant Squalene has been shown to reduce or halt the blood supply to tumors, studies also indicate that the amaranth seed can inhibit the growth of breast cancer cells.
