Guisantes, commonly known as green peas, are small, vibrant legumes with a sweet flavor and soft texture. Native to the Mediterranean and Middle Eastern regions, they are now an integral part of global cuisine, featuring prominently in soups, stews, salads, and rice dishes. They are rich in essential nutrients, including vitamins A, C, and K, as well as fiber, protein, and antioxidants like lutein and zeaxanthin, which support eye health. Their high protein content makes them a popular choice for vegetarian and vegan diets. Despite their natural sugar content, green peas have a low glycemic index, promoting stable blood sugar levels. They are naturally low in fat and calories, making them a weight-friendly food. However, those managing digestive sensitivities should moderate intake due to their fibrous nature, which may cause bloating for some individuals. Versatile and nutritionally dense, guisantes are a valuable addition to any diet.
