Lentils, like beans, are legumes. They’re high-protein, edible pulses that grow in pods. Lentils are typically sold dried and look like tiny lenses or pebbles and have a mild, earthy flavor. When cooked, they soften while still maintaining a substantially pleasant chew, much like an al dente noodle. We buy and sell Lentils in Tanzania and across the world!
Lentils add essential vitamins, minerals, and fiber to the diet. They also provide protein and are an excellent replacement for meat in meals.
Studies have found that the potassium, calcium, and magnesium in lentils can decrease blood pressure naturally. The National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) recommend this diet for bringing down blood pressure.
