Pulses

Product Details

Pulse comes from the Latin word puls meaning thick soup. Beans, peas, lentils, and chickpeas are all very nutritious. All pulses are very high sources of fibre, an excellent source of folate, an excellent source of iron if eaten with a source of vitamin C, high in complex carbohydrates, and low in fat. These nutritional attributes make a pulse an important part of any healthy diet and can help maintain a healthy weight. Pulses have additional benefits for people who have diabetes, have high blood cholesterol levels, tend to be constipated, have celiac disease or who are vegetarians.
