Dietitian's Tips for Consuming Chickpea

  • Metabolic Effect: Chickpeas, thanks to their fiber content, balance blood sugar and provide a feeling of fullness. They support digestion and regulate bowel movements, preventing constipation.
  • Consumption Recommendation: Instead of consuming chickpeas alone, consuming them with a salad containing vitamin C increases iron absorption. Consuming them with yogurt or buttermilk also balances protein intake.
  • Things to Consider: 1 glass of chickpeas is equivalent to approximately 3 slices of bread. Excessive consumption can cause bloating.
  • Exercise Equivalent: To burn these calories, you need to walk at a moderate pace for about 50 minutes. This helps increase your daily activity level.
