Green Lentils
Green lentils are an excellent source of plant-based protein and rich in fiber, supporting digestion and satiety. They contain very low fat and provide complex carbohydrates that supply sustained energy. Notably, they are rich in important minerals such as iron, magnesium, and potassium, which contribute to muscle function and nerve health. Additionally, green lentils provide B vitamins and antioxidants that aid in energy metabolism.
