Some of the health benefits of einkorn include its ability to help regulate the body's metabolism, create sex hormones, build healthy bones, improve the immune system, increase digestive function, lower blood sugar, and reduce of cholesterol levels in the body. Einkorn is one of the oldest cultivated crops in human history. It is a cereal that is closely related to wheat, but the popularity of wheat soon displaced it, so it is considered an obsolete cereal. However, it is returning as a healthy food, especially in Spain, the United Kingdom and other parts of Europe. It is actually full of nutrients, vitamins, minerals and essential organic compounds that other grains and forms of wheat do not contain. This, in turn, explains the renewed interest in einkorn.
