One of the components of buckwheat is d-chiro-inositol. D-chiro-inositol is in our cell membranes and it helps the receptor sites respond to the components they are suppose to respond to. What this means for the diabetic, is that the insulin receptor sites will be enhanced by d-chiro-inositol. This enhancement allows insulin to more freely join to the receptor site allowing sugar from the blood into the cell. This in turn decreases blood sugar levels.
There is also some research ongoing to see if cholesterol levels can be reduced by d-chiro-inositol. In addition, women with polycystic ovary syndrome may find that it will assist them in getting pregnant. If there are those of you that would like more information about polycytic ovary syndrome, please send me an email and I can give you more information.
