LENTILS EXPLAINED

                                                             LENTILS

Nowadays, the young generation is getting more and more into healthier options to stay fit and in shape. One of the most sought after diet appears to be Protein Diet. For vegetarians especially , the best source for proteins are lentils which along with their complex carbohydrate content can help reduce unwanted weight and simply by incorporating protein intake through regular meals, one can refrain from indulging into buying expensive protein powders and protein bars etc. available in the shops.
Protein and complex carbohydrates help maintain a steady blood sugar level resulting in alertness as compared to simple carbohydrate meals which spike up the blood sugar very quickly and reduce as quickly resulting in tiredness and inability to focus.

The easiest way to include protein into our diet is to opt for lentil based meals instead of simple carbohydrate based such as bread,pizza,pasta,white rice.
