Description
Loving Earth’s Activated Buckinis are gluten free and alkalise our bodies. They are a rich source of protein, rutin and manganese. Buckwheat is a rich source of protein, rutin and manganese and also minerals like Zinc, Iron, Copper, Manganese and B Vitamins, and is also low in fat. The little fat that it does contain is mostly monounsaturated which is the kind that makes olive oil good for the heart. The Magnesium also helps improve blood circulation and decreases blood pressure. Buckwheat has a lot of heart-healthy soluble fibre which helps reduce cholesterol, and also contains resistant starch, which boosts colon health and controls blood sugar levels. The flavonoids in buckwheat, Quercitin and Rutin, have healing and antioxidant properties. While most cereals are puffed or toasted under extreme heat or pressure (destroying their nutrients), Loving Earth’s Buckinis are activated (or sprouted), in order to make the most of the nutrients. This is achieved by soaking the seeds in filtered water to release the enzyme inhibitors, bringing the seeds to life. Enzyme inhibitors exist to keep the seed dormant as it waits for the right conditions to germinate. This means they also prevent the nutrients in the seed from being released into your body when you eat it. Activating makes it easier for the body to absorb the nutrients. This product is certified organic by ACO. Ingredients Organic Activated Buckwheat. Origin Made in Australia from local and imported ingredients.
