Buckwheat flavonoids are a concentrated complex of phenolic compounds extracted from Fagopyrum esculentum (common buckwheat) and Fagopyrum tataricum (tartary buckwheat). The flavonoid profile includes rutin, quercetin, vitexin, isovitexin, and orientin.
Tartary buckwheat contains significantly higher rutin levels compared to common buckwheat. These flavonoids demonstrate strong antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and vasoprotective properties. Buckwheat flavonoids are commercially applied in cardiovascular supplements, antioxidant nutraceuticals, and functional food products targeting circulatory health.
