BIOMASS ORGANIC SPLIT RED LENTILS

Lentils are one of the world’s oldest health foods. When stacked up against other beans, lentils are No. 2 in protein. When combined with a whole grain, like brown rice, they can give you the same quality of protein as meat. However, when you eat lentils instead of red or processed meat, you make a healthier choice for your heart. Protein is a building block of bones, muscles, and skin. It can also curb your appetite because it keeps you feeling full longer than other nutrients do. Fiber fills you up, too. Lentils have plenty of it. A single serving meets 32% of the fiber you need each day. It can lower cholesterol and protect against diabetes and colon cancer. A daily dose of fiber pushes waste through your digestive system and prevents constipation, too. The potassium, folate, and iron in lentils also provide many benefits. Potassium counters the bad effects of salt and lowers blood pressure. Folate protects your heart and supports your body in forming red blood cells. If you are pregnant, folate is important for your baby’s development. Iron helps ward off fatigue.
