Buckwheat does not contain gluten, which is why it is widely accepted among people with celiac disease. Its flour is therefore a common ingredient in gluten-free pasta and bread.

It is rich in dietary fiber and contains eight essential amino acids. It also contains minerals, such as:

phosphorus, magnesium, iron, zinc, copper, manganese, and in addition to all this, it reduces blood sugar levels, making it beneficial for diabetics.

Buckwheat has been found to reduce high blood pressure and cholesterol, maintain cardiovascular health, and reduce the risk of cancer. But… let it first win you over with its taste, and then we can continue with all its benefits.
