Buckwheat(Fagopyrum esculentum) is a pseudocereal, it does not belong to the grass family (unlike wheat, rye, barley or oats). It does not contain gluten and is an excellent source of protein and amino acids. The human body can absorb 74% of these proteins. It is a very complete food as it provides sufficient protein, fiber and B vitamins, rich in magnesium, phosphorus and niacin.
This ingredient has become popular among the celiac sector, as it is a healthy alternative to wheat.
Approximately 1% of the Spanish population is gluten intolerant, but only between 20% and 25% of coeliacs are diagnosed. This has led to an increase in society's awareness of the disease and 13% of consumers voluntarily avoid gluten.
