Your Best Pulses from Mung Beans to Spirulina …

African American Mung Beans
What are Pulses? Pulses are the edible seeds of legumes, like lentils, beans, peas and chickpeas. The name pulse is derived from the Latin puls meaning thick soup or potage.

Pulses are an excellent food source with many healthy benefits.

Their nutritional composition includes complex carbohydrates (e.g. fibre, resistant starch, oligosaccharides), vegetable protein, important vitamins and minerals like folate and iron as well as antioxidants and only small amounts of fat.

All pulses support a healthy diet.

Pulses have a low glycemic index which results in slower digestion. This makes pulses a valuable food choice for people with diabetes as well as those at risk from both diabetes and cardiovascular disease.

Research suggests that a regular dietary intake of pulses can reduce serum cholesterol and triglycerides and can also reduce the risk of developing nutrition-related health problems like obesity, diabetes, heart disease and cancer.
