Lentils! This tiny nutritional giant fills you up, not out.

Lentils may be small, but this member of the legume family is nutritionally mighty.  They are a very good source of cholesterol-lowering fiber and provide good to excellent amounts of seven important minerals, our B-vitamins and protein—with nearly no fat. Increasing consumption of plant foods like lentils decreases the risk of obesity, diabetes and heart disease, while promoting a healthy complexion and hair, increased energy, and overall lower weight.  Lentils are very easy to prepare and versatile.  Click here to learn more.
