Chickpeas Whole Organic Greek 500gr(Expiration Date 31/7)

Chickpeas are one of the best sources of plant protein, equivalent to meat, milk, and soy. They can effectively replace meat in our diet. Chickpeas stand out from other legumes for the quality of their proteins, which range from 20% to 30% and contain all the essential amino acids needed by the human body, especially the amino acid methionine. They are also a good source of carbohydrates, ranging from 53% to 70%, and are rich in starch. A distinctive feature is their high fiber content, ranging from 7.5% to 14%, mainly found in their skin.

Folic acid, calcium, iron, magnesium, and a plethora of vitamins such as A, B1, B2, B6, B12, and C make them a complete food, ideal for preventing arteriosclerosis and reducing blood pressure.
