About Grechka
Grechka, also known as buckwheat, is a nutrient-dense seed popular in Eastern European and Russian cuisine. Despite its name, it’s not related to wheat and is naturally gluten-free, making it a suitable option for those with gluten sensitivities. Rich in complex carbohydrates, fiber, and plant-based protein, grechka is an excellent source of sustained energy. It contains essential minerals like magnesium, iron, and zinc, as well as antioxidants such as rutin, which supports heart health and inflammation reduction. Low in fat and free of cholesterol, it aligns well with balanced diets. Grechka is versatile, often used as a side dish, porridge, or in salads. While it is highly nutritious, cooking methods that add excessive salt, butter, or oil may reduce its health benefits. Its ability to satiate and provide vital nutrients makes it a staple for promoting overall wellness and heart-friendly eating habits.
