Red split lentils are one of the healthiest legumes put there. People have been eating them for centuries and this food is not only nutritious but very delicious as well. One of the best things about lentils, in particular, is that they don’t require soaking and cooking them is a quick and easy process. Therefore, it’s always good to have some on hand so that you can throw up a quick healthy meal when you are pressed for time.

Red Split Lentils Health Benefits

Health benefits offered by red split lentils are numerous and varied. The most important of them are:

  • They help you control your cholesterol levels Legumes, in general, are good for the body as they promote the production of good HDL cholesterol while reducing the level of LDL cholesterol. Red lentils don’t contain any cholesterol at all, which means that they are exceptionally good for your cardiovascular system. People predisposed to heart diseases should consume lentils on a regular basis.
  • They help you build up muscle Red lentils are rich in protein, which is a building material human bodies use to build muscles and regenerate cells. If you are into bodybuilding, eating lots of lentils is a good option for you.
  • They help control blood sugar levels People suffering from diabetes should eat lentils regularly as they are a great source of a very particular type of dietary fiber. All legumes provide your body with this kind of fiber in some measure. According to the results of several studies, legumes fiber helps control blood sugar levels best.
  • They provide you with folic acid All pregnant women will benefit from eating lentils as they contain large amounts of folic acid. This particular nutrient reduces the risk of birth defects. It also helps against hypertension, a condition that can lead to stroke and commonly affects diabetics.
  • They contain lots of iron Iron is an essential mineral that directly affects the production of hemoglobin. Iron deficiency causes dangerous anemia. This condition is more common in women, but it can affect men as well. Eating one cup of lentils a day should provide you with about 36% of the required daily dose of this mineral.

Cooking Instructions

  • Bring a pot of water to boil. Once the water is boiling, add the lentils. Reduce the heat as necessary to maintain a lively simmer.
  • Add some flavor boosters, if you’d like; Some salt, maybe a bay leaf, and maybe a clove of garlic.
  • Cook until you reach your desired consistency. You’ll need to test them for doneness when the timer goes off. Split lentils cook much faster.
  • Strain off the excess water. We’ve cooked our lentils in an abundance of water, so now you’ll want to get rid of the excess. Return your lentils to the pot, off the heat, and remove the bay leaf if you added one.
