About Horsegram sprouts

Horsegram sprouts are nutrient-rich legumes derived from horsegram seeds, a staple in South Asian cuisine and traditional Indian diets. Known for their earthy flavor and crunchy texture, these sprouts are packed with protein, dietary fiber, vitamins, and minerals like iron, calcium, and phosphorus. Particularly valued in Ayurveda for their medicinal properties, horsegram sprouts are often used to support digestion, boost energy, and maintain healthy metabolism. They are low in fat but rich in antioxidants, making them a heart-healthy addition to meals. Popular in weight management and diabetic-friendly diets, they are commonly incorporated into salads, soups, or stir-fries. However, due to their relatively high oxalate levels, moderation is advised for individuals prone to kidney stones or calcium deficiencies. Affordable, versatile, and nutrient-dense, horsegram sprouts stand out as a wholesome choice for balanced eating.
