About Pulses
What we call pulses are what you know as the nutritionally dense, edible seeds of legumes including dry peas, beans, lentils, and chickpeas. The word "pulse" comes from the Latin word puls meaning thick soup.
Known as health powerhouses, pulses pack a serious punch when it comes to their dietary benefits. Pulses are rich in important nutrients including fiber, protein, folate, potassium, and iron.
