Buckwheat

Hello Loren,

What do you think of Buckwheat? it’s highly popular as healthy alternative to wheat and flower, and often consumed as noodles. Is it semi ok?

Dr. Cordain’s Response:

Hi James,

I have written an entire chapter on pseudo grains in my latest book (The Paleo Answer, John Wiley & Sons, 2012), including buckwheat. All of the scientific evidence for excluding this food from your diet is provided.

Cordially,

Loren Cordain, Ph.D., Professor
