This is the FAQ page. Everything you need to know about Dal in more detail is right here 🙂
Our Dal (spelt in numerous ways Daal, Dahl, Dail or Dhal) is a term used in the Indian subcontinent for dried, split pulses (legumes, that is lentils, peas and beans).
Legumes plus a grain or seed is a complete protein. The midnight snack of Darlin’ Dal on your favourite toasted bread… Complete protein!
While some get is worse than others there is one main reason this embarrassment might occur. It’s all about the gut health!The more scientific explanation is…
“Legumes contain unabsorbed short-chain carbohydrates called galacto-oligosaccharide (GOS) and fructans. These poorly absorbed sugars are rapidly fermented by gut bacteria in the large bowel, resulting in gas. Some people are more susceptible to the gas production than others,” Charlene Grosse, accredited practising dietitian and spokesperson for Dietitians Association of Australia. Although legumes contain these poorly absorbed sugars, they can actually promote good gut health. “Research indicates this type of sugar found in legumes is healthy for your gut,” – The Huffington Post Australia.
Go SLOW! This is because “…adding a lot of legumes in the diet in a short space of time may lead to gas. If you are not used to having legumes introduce them slowly over several weeks.” – The Huffington Post Australia
