Is Hummus a Healthy Snack?

"Words cannot express HUMMUS I love you."

I live in the sandpit for a long time and I must say that I miss the authentic hummus there. And since I love snacking, I always prefer to go for healthy options.

Do you think hummus is a healthy option for a snack?

Hummus is typically made by blending chickpeas (garbanzo beans), tahini (ground sesame seeds), olive oil, lemon juice, and garlic in a food processor.

So for today, I would love to share with you some of its benefits:

✔️ Super nutritious and packed with plant-based protein - this makes as an excellent choice for people who are vegetarian or in a vegan diet.

Consuming protein is very beneficial to our health especially for those who are health-buff.

✔️ Rich with ingredients proven to fight inflammation - it has healthy ingredients that may help combat chronic inflammation.

Just like the olive oil which is rich in powerful antioxidants that have anti-inflammatory benefits.

✔️ High in fiber promoting digestive health is food for probiotics - thanks to its high fiber content, hummus can help keep you regular.

Also, dietary fiber helps feed the healthy bacteria that live in your gut.

✔️ Has a low glycemic index helping control blood sugar levels - hummus is made from chickpeas, which have a low glycemic index.

It actually is a scale that measures the ability of doods to raise blood sugar.

✔️ It contains heart-healthy ingredients that may reduce heart disease risk - it has a great source of heart-healthy fats from olive oil.

✔️ Promotes weight-loss - based on a national survey, people who regularly consumed chickpeas or hummus were 53% less likely to be obese.

Hummus has several properties that can help promote weight loss.

✔️ Great for those who have Intolerances - hummus is naturally gluten, nut, and dairy free so it just means that everyone can enjoy it anytime.

✔️ A great addition to your diet plan - hummus is nutritious and tasty so it's a great add on to your diet.

It can be eaten alone, can be a dip with pita bread or pita chips.

Plus this is very easy to make that you can even make it at home for only 10 minutes.
