Benefits of Homemade Hummus

They are beneficial for digestive health, providing about 15g of fiber per cup, with 75% of it insoluble fiber, which aids in elimination. They are also a great source of plant-based protein, offering 15 grams of protein per cup. Garlic may help lower cholesterol levels when consumed daily. It's so packed with good-for-you nutrients that it's been shown to have antibacterial, antiviral, and anti-inflammatory properties.
