Health Benefits of Buckwheat Cereal
Buckwheat contains 22 grams of protein, 17 grams of fiber and almost 86 milligrams of magnesium in a one-cup serving. Magnesium relaxes blood vessels and improves blood flow while lowering blood pressure, making buckwheat great for a healthy cardiovascular system. Buckwheat is gluten free and a great option for those allergic or sensitive to gluten and is a wonderful way for many vegans to get protein. Adding a dab of butter and a pinch of cinnamon to this buckwheat cereal is a fabulous way to start your day and will do much to aid blood sugar regulation as well.
