Benefits of Organic Buckwheat Whole Sprouts
Buckwheat sprouting seeds grow a fiber-rich sprout with Vitamins A, B, C, and E, calcium, iron, magnesium, niacin, phosphorus, potassium, and protein.

They also contain plentiful antioxidants that have been linked to cancer prevention. Sprouting buckwheat before eating it can actually increase the amount of essential amino acids that become available to our body to intake from them.
Please note that some have expressed concerns about eating large quantities of buckwheat greens. Cases of severe allergic reactions to buckwheat and buckwheat-containing products have been reported.
