About Channa dal

Channa Dal, also known as split chickpea lentils, is a staple in Indian cuisine and a key ingredient in a variety of dishes. It is derived from desi chickpeas that are hulled and split into small, golden grains. Rich in protein, dietary fiber, and essential vitamins like B-complex, Channa Dal is an excellent choice for maintaining energy levels and supporting digestive health. It is naturally low in fat and contains important minerals such as iron, potassium, and magnesium, making it beneficial for heart health and overall wellness. Channa Dal has a low glycemic index, making it a smart option for those managing blood sugar levels. Versatile and filling, it can be used in soups, stews, or as a base for curries. While generally healthy, it is important to moderate portions, especially in recipes using added fats or salt.
