Chickpeas have a number of health benefits: blood sugar control, support for heart and bowel function.

What is useful hummus

The product is rich in minerals. It contains magnesium, potassium and calcium, which strengthen the cardiovascular system and the musculoskeletal system. The presence of a large number of amino acids allows you to normalize all body functions and improve metabolism. ABOUT

While retaining almost all the beneficial properties of chickpeas, hummus normalizes the body's metabolic processes, lowers blood sugar, and lowers the level of "bad" cholesterol. Just like chickpeas, hummus makes up for the lack of vitamins such as A, B, C, K and E, and a very important trace element - iron.

How to eat hummus

It is usually smeared on fresh flatbread or eaten on its own with tkmemali sauce. Serve pasta at the beginning of the meal as an appetizer. Then you can move on to the main meal. As a rule, only vegetarians - or those who have enough carbohydrates from chickpeas - use hummus as a main dish.

In the traditional version, hummus is served neat, flavored with olive oil and spices. They eat it without the use of cutlery, dipping pieces of unleavened pita bread into it.
