What is it?

The legume chickpea, also known as chana, is an excellent source of protein and fiber. As a protein-rich food, chickpeas can readily replace meat in vegetarian and vegan diets. In addition to protein, chickpeas provide a variety of minerals, vitamins, and antioxidants. Regularly eating chickpeas can benefit skin health due to their antioxidant activity. Traditionally used as part of the brides skin prep in Indian weddings, chickpeas can help reduce acne breakouts and improve skin clarity. This versatile legume is rich in magnesium and zinc, minerals that regulate inflammation underlying acne. By applying chickpea flour to inflamed skin, the zinc and magnesium can calm swelling and redness, diminishing blemishes.
