Kulthi Dal

Description

Long before "superfood" became a marketing term, Ayurveda had already identified Kulthi Dal, horse gram, as one of the most therapeutically valuable legumes in the Indian diet.
Hariom Kulthi Dal brings you this traditional pulse in its purest form: small, reddish-brown lentils with a distinctively rich, earthy flavour that has been a staple in South Indian and rural North Indian households for generations.

Horse gram is exceptional even by legume standards as it carries one of the highest protein and calcium contents among commonly eaten pulses, along with a meaningful iron content that has made it a traditional remedy for anaemia.
Ayurvedic and traditional medicine literature has long associated horse gram with kidney stone management and weight control, attributed to its unique polyphenol content and its notably low fat profile.
Modern nutritional interest in horse gram has grown precisely because science is now validating much of what traditional practice already knew.
