Why are pulses good for me?

Mar 04, 2021 Posted by: Alexander Carr-Locke Nutrition,  Pulses

The lentils and peas in your Stewp Mix are also known as pulses. Pulses contain fibre and protein. 

The UN declared 2016 "International Year of Pulses" and published an excellent communication, "Pulses - Nutritious Seeds for a Sustainable Future".  It is a FREE publication and you can download from our Shop.
