Peas: Properties and benefits

Peas are legumes with very interesting nutritional and therapeutic value. Their action is very important on the digestive system and excretory organs. In fact, they have the ability to promote regular intestinal transit (which has beneficial effects for the health of the intestine and therefore also for our immune system) and to promote diuresis (thus facilitating the elimination of toxins and the purification of our organism). They therefore have purifying and detoxifying properties. They are also very useful for their antioxidant action thanks to their content of vitamin A (also very useful for the well-being of the skin and eyes), vitamin C (also very useful for the heart and the cardiovascular system), vitamins E and of vitamin K. These legumes also contain B group vitamins (B1, B2, B3, B5 and B6) precious for cellular regeneration processes. They are also rich in flavonoids which enhance the already strong antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties (in particular, lutein and zeaxanthin are present in large quantities in peas which have a powerful protective effect on the retina and the eyeball as a whole). They are also excellent remineralizers thanks to the abundant content of mineral salts (potassium, phosphorus, calcium, magnesium, iron, etc.). Peas are therefore a real panacea for our body and should therefore be consumed as much as possible. Preferably raw and associated with vegetables with a powerful purifying action (chicory, watercress, red beets, etc.) or even in soup together with other legumes and various vegetables. B5 and B6) precious for cellular regeneration processes. They are also rich in flavonoids which enhance the already strong antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties (in particular, lutein and zeaxanthin are present in large quantities in peas which have a powerful protective effect on the retina and the eyeball as a whole). They are also excellent remineralizers thanks to the abundant content of mineral salts (potassium, phosphorus, calcium, magnesium, iron, etc.). Peas are therefore a real panacea for our body and should therefore be consumed as much as possible. Preferably raw and associated with vegetables with a powerful purifying action (chicory, watercress, red beets, etc.) or even in soup together with other legumes and various vegetables. B5 and B6) precious for cellular regeneration processes. They are also rich in flavonoids which enhance the already strong antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties (in particular, lutein and zeaxanthin are present in large quantities in peas which have a powerful protective effect on the retina and the eyeball as a whole). They are also excellent remineralizers thanks to the abundant content of mineral salts (potassium, phosphorus, calcium, magnesium, iron, etc.). Peas are therefore a real panacea for our body and should therefore be consumed as much as possible. Preferably raw and associated with vegetables with a powerful purifying action (chicory, watercress, red beets, etc.) or even in soup together with other legumes and various vegetables. They are also rich in flavonoids which enhance the already strong antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties (in particular, lutein and zeaxanthin are present in large quantities in peas which have a powerful protective effect on the retina and the eyeball as a whole). They are also excellent remineralizers thanks to the abundant content of mineral salts (potassium, phosphorus, calcium, magnesium, iron, etc.). Peas are therefore a real panacea for our body and should therefore be consumed as much as possible. Preferably raw and associated with vegetables with a powerful purifying action (chicory, watercress, red beets, etc.) or even in soup together with other legumes and various vegetables. They are also rich in flavonoids which enhance the already strong antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties (in particular, lutein and zeaxanthin are present in large quantities in peas which have a powerful protective effect on the retina and the eyeball as a whole). They are also excellent remineralizers thanks to the abundant content of mineral salts (potassium, phosphorus, calcium, magnesium, iron, etc.). Peas are therefore a real panacea for our body and should therefore be consumed as much as possible. Preferably raw and associated with vegetables with a powerful purifying action (chicory, watercress, red beets, etc.) or even in soup together with other legumes and various vegetables.
