Buckwheat, the main ingredient in both of these products is actually not a grain but a fruit seed and part of the rhubarb family of plants. It’s considered to be the best known source of high biological protein in the plant kingdom. Diets that contain buckwheat have been linked to a lowered risk of developing high cholesterol and high blood pressure and other beneficial effects are due in part to its rich supply of flavonoids, particularly rutin.

Both products are low in saturated fat, sugar and salt.
