Garbanzo beans are one of the top plant sources of protein. A cupful gives a person 15 grams of protein.
Protein is needed for many functions in the body, including building muscle tissue.
Garbanzo beans are also one of the best non-meat sources of iron. A cup of garbanzo beans provides a person with 1/4 the iron needed for the day. Iron is very important for good health. Lack of iron can result in fatigue, anemia, and other health conditions.
Garbanzo beans are also excellent sources of manganese, folic acid, phosphorus, and copper.
