LENTIL PROTEINVEGEN FOOD IS FOR EVERYBODY!Lentil protein is about a rich, easy-to-cook food. They form probably the cheapest protein you can buy. What I love about LENTILS is that they are so easy to cook. They are small and absorbent enough that unlike most other ‘pulses’ they don’t need to be soaked. Just throw in a handful when you are cooking brown rice and all your stews. Delicious! What could be easier? Legumes are a group of healthy foods which are high in protein. They include beans, peas … and lentils. At 26% protein they are a rich source for vegetarians. But why should only they enjoy the fun? Lentils are for all! Beans get notoriously bad press but cooked right are delicious and an important part of the
live health diet.
Lentils come in a rich variety of colours. Yellow to red-orange to green, brown and black. As a general rule, remember that coloured foods are rich in anti-oxidants, so mix and match your lentils too. They are rich in fibre, vitamins and minerals...
It grows on a small bush, but you will probably never see it growing. Quite soon our kids won’t even know that milk comes from a cow! Generally Western society eats too much protein which is associated with a host of diseases, including breast cancer. However, vegetable proteins are much safer, and legumes make up the best source. There are a variety of weight loss fads associated with high protein powders and foods. Avoid them at all costs! In general, all of these dietary fads are ineffective. Want to lose weight permanently? Rather just think about eating more salad and fruit, more legumes, exercise more, and stop fussing about your weight. Slowly but surely, what's more important healthily, it will come off. Do it!
