Yo Buckwheat!

Brian December 29th, 2008

I was reading the highly vaunted FLEX magazine the other day and actually found a useful nugget of information. New research has found that Buckwheat protein, which is found in Soba noodles, has a better bioavailability (a measure of how well your body can assimilate and use a certain type of protein) than whey or casein. Soba noodles are a great alternative to pasta for those who are allergic to gluten. Combine some Soba noodles with mixed vegetable and chicken for a protein packed stir fry.
