Buckwheat delivers all nine essential amino acids — rare for a plant — along with magnesium and heart-friendly rutin.
Despite its name, buckwheat is not wheat and is naturally gluten-free. It has a slightly earthy, nutty flavor. It is used in porridge, grain bowls, and noodles like soba. Buckwheat provides fiber, plant protein, and antioxidants that support overall health.
