Low glycemic index

Low GI foods (and rice and buckwheat are just that) are good because they provide a long-lasting feeling of satiety.

Thus, eating rice and buckwheat porridge makes the transition to a dietary diet much easier: the likelihood of a “breakdown” becomes minimal.

Content of vitamins and microelements

When there is a calorie deficit, the human body may also experience a lack of many nutrients.

Eating rice and buckwheat helps compensate for the lack of important compounds and microelements.

The fact is that the products contain vitamins, magnesium, phosphorus, manganese and many other useful components.

Maintaining a balance of proteins, fats and carbohydrates

Eating rice and buckwheat porridge is an easy way to get your carbohydrates without excess fat.

Of course, sweets are also high-carbohydrate foods. But you shouldn't eat them while on a diet.
