Product Description
Lentils are nutrient-dense legumes known for their antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and heart-protective properties. Rich in plant-based protein, fiber, iron, folate, and essential minerals, lentils support muscle growth, energy production, and red blood cell formation. Their high fiber content aids digestion, promotes gut health, and helps regulate blood sugar levels, making them beneficial for diabetes management. Studies suggest that lentils can help lower cholesterol, reduce blood pressure, and improve heart health by reducing inflammation and oxidative stress. Additionally, lentils contain polyphenols, which have immune-boosting and potential anticancer properties. While generally safe, excessive consumption may cause bloating or digestive discomfort due to their high fiber and complex carbohydrate content.
