What are the benefits of roasted chickpeas?
Chickpeas contain monounsaturated and/or polyunsaturated fatty acids. Replacing saturated fats with unsaturated fats in the diet contributes to the maintenance of normal blood cholesterol levels.
Chickpeas contain protein. Protein contributes to the growth and maintenance of muscle mass and supports the maintenance of normal bones.
Chickpeas contain iron. Iron supports the normal formation of red blood cells and hemoglobin and helps with normal oxygen transport throughout the body. Iron also supports the normal function of the immune system, plays a role in cell division, and reduces fatigue and exhaustion.
