While buckwheat is appreciated for its impressive nutritional profile and ecological benefits, it is naturally gluten-free, as it is not a grain, despite the word 'wheat' in its name. However, it looks and tastes like a grain. Buckwheat is sometimes called a "pseudo-cereal", which is why it can have similar uses and flavors to oats or quinoa. It contains approximately 14 g of protein per 100 g, vitamins, dietary fiber, essential polyunsaturated fatty acids, antioxidants and amino acids that support growth and muscle synthesis. It has a distinctive aromatic flavor. Due to its high nutritional values, it is indispensable for a gluten-free diet.
