Benefits Of Lentils
1. Promotes heart health
The presence of fibre, iron and magnesium in lentils are linked to lower risk of heart disease.
2. Good for diabetics
Lentils contain polyphenols which play a major role in improving blood sugar levels. It is found that consuming lentils can help lower blood sugar levels and improve insulin activity in diabetic patients.
3. Speeds up digestion
Lentils can prevent constipation and other digestive disorders like irritable bowel syndrome and diverticulosis due to the presence of high dietary fibre. This promotes regularity for a healthy digestive tract. Fibre helps in regular bowel movements and the growth of healthy gut bacteria.
4. Aids in weight loss
Consumption of high fibre foods like lentils can help in better weight management as fibre suppresses appetite and increases satiety, thereby keeping your stomach full for longer. Also, lentils are low in calories which can lower your overall calorie intake.
5. Prevents cancer
Lentils are rich in polyphenols like flavanols and procyanidin which have been known to have antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective effects . The polyphenols in lentils can stop the growth of cancer cells, especially skin cancer and the fibre content can lower the risk of colon cancer. A study found that lentils have the potent ability to inhibit the production of inflammation-promoting molecule cyclooxygenase-2.
6. Fights fatigue
As lentils are an excellent source of iron, it can prevent iron deficiency. Less amounts of iron in the body can deplete your stores and cause you to feel weak and tired. This further leads to fatigue. Vitamin C helps in better absorption of iron from foods and both these nutrients are present in lentils which means that your body is getting the right dose of nutrients
