[quote=Anonymous]Sorry.. PP here. Hit submit magically. There is also some evidence that some phytic acid is beneficial, lessening risk for kidney stones, high cholesterol, There are certainly worse sources of phytic acid than buckwheat, and many of them contain much less phytase. The biological reason for that is buckwheat is actually a fruit, and not a true nut/ grain. If probably give buckwheat a short soak, but I also appreciate the nice crunchiness it gives. A 30 min soak for buckwheat is enough to rehydrate the grain, but you lose that awesomeness. There's certainly worse grains to risk your phytic acid load on by not soaking. Almonds are crazy high in phytic acid, but most people pop them without soaking, right? [/quote]
