10 Amazing Health Benefits of Lentils

Facilitates Weight Loss

An age-old question for vegetarians is “how do I get full without gorging on starches?” Veggie-heavy cuisines, like Indian, choose lentils to do the trick. A 1 cup serving contains just 230 calories. That same portion also has 63% of your daily fiber and high amount of protein, both of which keep you feeling full for longer. So eat a flavorful dish of lentils if you want to feel full and maintain portion control.
