Horse gram is considered as a miracle super food that is widely consumed as a staple diet in the southern parts of India. It is rich in nutrients and have plenty of minerals too- phosphorus, calcium, protein and iron. Hence it is known to be very beneficial for human health, as much as it is useful for animal health too. Now let us take a very good look and learn more about the benefits of horse gram for our overall health.
1. Diarrhea
Horse gram consists of good amount of fiber which helps with digestion and soaking up additional fluids from the intestine and the stomach. This reduces the occurrence of diarrhea and loose motion, and allows normal bowel movements to happen. One should have a handful of pre-soaked horse gram legumes early each morning, which encourages the digestive system to work better.
2. Conjunctivitis
You can use rose water to wash your eyes with when you suffer from conjunctivitis, or what you could do is to pre-soak a handful of horse gram seeds overnight. Next morning, strain the seeds and use the water to wash your eyes with it. The antioxidant levels in the water help combat the infection and keep the eyes soothed and calm, without the irritation. Thrice a day the water should be used to wash the eyes with.
3. Weight Loss
In Ayurveda it is said, if one consumes horse gram every day, weight loss happens for sure. This is only when you consume horse gram in powder form, and to this shall be added a dash of cumin seeds. The two should be mixed in a glass of water and drunk twice a day on an empty stomach at your own ease. Some prefer not to have horse gram for weight loss in this form, and some prefer to choose a plenity weight loss pill which is also fine. In such cases, the legume can be had soaked and raw, or mixed with pepper and bengal gram to form a crunchy salad and eaten.
4. Menstrual Disturbances
Menses problems are very disturbing, and unless one has them, one would not know how painful and energy draining it can be. For overcoming this painful situation, you can either have the soup of horse gram or have salads which would have horse gram in them, which helps bring down the levels of irritation related with menstrual disturbances. When you have irregular menstrual cycles or excessive bleeding, it is the high iron content in horse gram which will help maintain the levels of hemoglobin in the body. This is why, holistic experts recommend horse gram to women with menses issues.
