Green Lentil's Information
Lentil (Lens culinaris) is one of four species, including the genus Lens, found in the legume (Fabaceae) family. Lens culinaris is the most common and most commonly consumed when it is called “lentils”, although the more or less lens-shaped and edible seeds of all species found in the genus Lens are collectively referred to as “lentils”.
Lentil, which is a fibery and abundant protein, is rich in calcium, manganese, sodium, copper, zinc and phosphorus minerals, especially vitamin B and iron.
