Beans, lentils and other pulses not only have great health benefits for people they are also beneficial for the planet. Thursday's #WorldPulsesDay is an opportunity to learn more about the health and environmental benefits of these tiny, multi-coloured seeds. Pulses are a great source of iron and protein and are also low in sodium and fat and have no cholesterol. Through their many health and nutritional benefits, pulses can help achieve a #ZeroHunger world. Pulses are vital for the future of food, and can help address food security and soil health challenges, while also contributing to the achievement of the #GlobalGoals. Regram: fao I 📷: Sumi Sadurni
