Lobia, also called cowpea and black-eyed peas, is a textured oval-shaped bean with a black eye. Although not as popular as chickpeas or kidney beans, lobia ranks much higher on nutrition, making it a hidden healthy gem. From its magical cholesterol-lowering properties to being diabetic friendly as well as promoting weight loss, lobia is a super bean with a bevy of health benefits. Lobia is among the healthiest foods you can eat. It has a high concentration of proteins, vitamins, and minerals. These protein amounts are so high in quality that they can assist a vegetarian in compensating for the shortages caused by not eating meat. Lobia has a rich, savoury flavour and is native to Indian, and traditional cuisines.

BENEFITS

A high protein and high fiber legume, lobia keeps hunger pangs at bay by promoting satiety. Incorporating cowpeas into your diet regularly lowers cholesterol levels. They are an excellent source of soluble fiber, which forms a gel-like substance and binds cholesterol and bile acids in the small intestine and eliminates them from the body. Iron, protein, and folate are the key nutrients whose requirement increases substantially during pregnancy. Being a rich source of these vital nutrients, labia is a must-include in the diet of pregnant women. A diet rich in folate lowers the risk of neural tube defects in the newborn. Lobia also contains a significant amount of flavonoids that protect against cardiovascular problems.
