The European and African Mediterranean, as well as the territory of Central Asia, are considered the birthplace of most of its species. Archaeologists claim that pea seeds have been used by man since the Stone Age. This legume is characterized by the fact that it contains a large amount of protein and fiber, so it has a beneficial effect on metabolic processes and can be a good source of protein for vegetarians and athletes.

BENEFITS OF PEAS

Peas have a high content of potassium and phosphorus, which play a significant role in regulating the processes of the cardiovascular and nervous systems. This legume has a high content of vitamins of the B group (B1, B2, B3, B6), as well as vitamins C, K, A, and E. In addition to this, peas are rich in microelements such as: sodium, calcium, magnesium, iron, zinc and selenium. All these vitamins and nutrients often play an important role in many key processes in the body and support the normal functioning of the body. Keep in mind that, along with peas, a number of precious acids also enter the body, such as glutamine – the most important element for the functioning of the brain, or pantothenic acid, which is necessary for the regulation of metabolism and ensures the synthesis of cholesterol, hemoglobin and histamine, and is also important folic acid, which participates in the formation of red blood cells and contributes to the normalization of blood formation.

HEALTH BENEFITS OF BUCKWHEAT CONSUMPTION

The use of peas has a beneficial effect on the human cardiovascular system, and it is primarily recommended for people suffering from hypertension because the high content of potassium, magnesium, and calcium helps to maintain normal blood pressure. Dietary fibers help normalize cholesterol level, and accordingly reduce the risk of arteriosclerosis. In addition to this, antioxidants, together with vitamins A and E, protect cells from destruction and thus contribute to the fight against cardiovascular diseases. Peas are also recommended for people suffering from diabetes, because they have a low glycemic index and are rich in fiber, which reduce the rate of absorption of carbohydrates, which leads to a gradual, rather than a rapid, rise in blood sugar levels.
