More reasons to eat rhubarb
Increasing your intake of rhubarbs can also bring you health benefits such as the following:

Stronger bones — Rhubarbs are rich in vitamin K, which is important for bone formation and preventing osteoporosis. They also contain a decent amount of calcium, another crucial mineral for bone health.
Weight loss — Eating rhubarbs can reduce bad cholesterol in your body. It also delivers large amounts of catechin that have been shown to boost metabolism, burn body fat, and promote weight loss.
Healthier skin — Rhubarbs are packed with the natural antioxidant vitamin A. This nutrient is important for keeping your skin youthful and glowing since it protects against oxidative stress. Aside from this, rhubarbs have potent antibacterial and antifungal properties that protect you from infections.
Reduced risk of Alzheimer’s — The vitamin K in rhubarbs is known for its protective effects against brain damage, which contributes to the development of Alzheimer’s. Moreover, rhubarbs can reduce brain inflammation that can lead to Alzheimer’s, stroke, and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).
Constipation relief — Rhubarbs can act as natural laxatives that can help with constipation. This benefit can be attributed to the presence of tannins, sennosides, and dietary fibers in the vegetable.

Since buckwheat is a member of the Rhubarb family, I wonder if this plant has miraculous properties.

God made plants and herbs to heal us.
