About Green moong dal

Green Moong Dal, an integral part of Indian cuisine, is a small, green legume packed with essential nutrients. Originating from Southeast Asia, this versatile pulse is rich in plant-based protein, dietary fiber, vitamins, and minerals such as potassium, magnesium, and folate. It has a mild, earthy flavor and is commonly used in soups, curries, and salads, as well as for sprouting. Green Moong Dal is known for its digestion-friendly properties, aiding gut health and supporting weight management. Its high antioxidant content boosts immunity and combats inflammation. Additionally, it has a low glycemic index, making it suitable for diabetics. However, moderation is key, as excessive consumption may lead to bloating for some individuals due to its fiber content. An excellent source of nutrition, Green Moong Dal is both gluten-free and heart-healthy, offering a wholesome addition to a balanced diet.
