A VERY NOURISHING PRODUCT. Peas are one of the most nutritious plant foods, stimulating the secretion of digestive juices, and are rich in protein, carbohydrates and minerals. The high nutritional value of peas makes them an excellent food to enrich your daily diet. They are also rich in fibre, which is very important for digestion and for regulating and maintaining a healthy gut.
SLOW CARBOHYDRATES. The carbohydrates in peas break down slowly, so pea dishes give you a long-lasting feeling of satiety without causing big swings in your sugar levels.
RICH IN VITAMINS AND MINERALS. Peas contain vitamins A, B1, B2, B2, B3, B6, B6, E, H and minerals such as phosphorus, iron, calcium, potassium, magnesium, sodium and copper.
SOURCE OF PROTEIN. Peas are an excellent source of protein. Over 23 g of uncooked peas per 100 g contain protein. These proteins are particularly useful and necessary for people who play sports or do not consume animal products.
