Chickpeas
yummy little balls with
health benefits
The main benefits of chickpeas:
Chickpeas are high in fiber,
low in calories and
low in fat, but
full of protein and
complex carbs. The contained lysine and
threonine help in muscle growth and saponins
regulate blood sugar levels. Just 150g of
chickpeas (cooked) cover 50% of the daily requirement of
folic acid. They are an excellent
source of iron and calcium, which also
provides satiety.
