The shorter answer is that it is if you make it yourself. If you buy flavored, packaged hummus from the store, you may be consuming excess amounts of sodium, preservatives, and flavorings. Not all store bought hummus is bad for you, but most are not as nutritious as the recipes you make yourself.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What Is Hummus?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Hummus is a great dip that\u2019s made by blending chickpeas, tahini, olive oil, lemon juice, and garlic. There are many variations, but that is a fairly standard recipe. <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dherbs.com\/?archive_template=search.php&amp;s=hummus&amp;post_type=recipe\">Homemade hummus<\/a> is an excellent source of protein, fiber, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dherbs.com\/articles\/diet-nutrition\/your-guide-to-choosing-healthy-fats\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"134\" title=\"Your Guide To Choosing Healthy Fats\">healthy fats<\/a>, and complex carbohydrates. <\/strong>In fact a 100-gram serving of hummus provides the following nutrients:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Calories: 166<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Fat: 9.6 grams (g)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Protein: 7.9 g<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Fiber: 6 g<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Carbs: 14.3g<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Folate: 21% of the recommended daily intake (RDI)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Phosphorus: 18% of the RDI<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Copper: 26% of the RDI<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dherbs.com\/store\/iron-formula-p-39.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Iron<\/a>: 14% of the RDI<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Manganese: 39% of the RDI<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Zinc: 12% of the RDI<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Magnesium: 18% of the RDI<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Vitamin B6: 10% of the RDI<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, it should be noted that the above nutritional breakdown comes from plain hummus. We aren\u2019t talking about roasted red pepper, garlic, roasted artichoke, or pine nut hummus varieties. Hummus can be an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dherbs.com\/articles\/diet-nutrition\/eat-more-fiber-for-a-healthier-gut\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>excellent source of dietary fiber<\/strong><\/a>, which works to keep you regular by adding bulk to stools, making them easier to pass. Additionally, the body\u2019s gut bacteria turns some of the fiber from hummus into short-chain fatty acid butyrate, which <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dherbs.com\/store\/colon-digestive-tract-p-21.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">helps nourish colon cells<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Are There Other Benefits?&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Hummus is full of <strong>heart-healthy fats<\/strong>, which come from the olive oil. Studies have shown that people who consume oils with healthy fats have a lower risk of death from heart disease. Increasing your consumption of olive oil by two teaspoons a day <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dherbs.com\/articles\/diet-nutrition\/fight-back-against-heart-disease-with-these-5-tips\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">may reduce the risk of heart disease<\/a> by 10%, according to one study. Eating hummus that contains <strong>tahini <\/strong>(made from sesame seeds) may also <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dherbs.com\/articles\/diet-nutrition\/5-turmeric-drinks-to-help-reduce-inflammation\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"86\" title=\"5 Turmeric Drinks To Help Reduce Inflammation\">reduce inflammation<\/a>. The sesame seeds work to reduce IL-6 and CRP, vascular inflammatory markers, which increase the risk of arthritis. Finally, hummus has a low glycemic index, helping you avoid a sharp blood sugar spike. The fats in hummus also slow the absorption of carbs from the gut, providing a slower, steady release of glucose into the bloodstream.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We could go on about hummus and the many health benefits all day, but you came for the recipes and we\u2019re going to give them to you.
