Bulgur is one of the oldest cereals, which has gained popularity all over the world due to its useful properties and versatility in cooking. It is made from durum wheat, which undergoes several stages of processing: steaming, drying, cleaning and grinding. This process helps preserve vitamins and trace elements, making bulgur not only tasty but also healthy.
Useful superfood
Bulgur is rich in fibre, B vitamins, iron, phosphorus and magnesium. It helps maintain normal digestion, improves metabolism and helps strengthen the nervous system. Thanks to its high content of complex carbohydrates, bulgur provides energy for the whole day, which is especially useful for people leading an active lifestyle.
It is good for the cardiovascular system due to its low fat content and zero cholesterol. The cereal helps control blood sugar levels, so it is suitable for people with diabetes or those monitoring their sugar levels.
Healthy eating
Bulgur is a great choice for health-conscious people, athletes and those who are looking for a balanced diet. Thanks to its rich nutritional composition, it keeps the body toned and helps to cope with daily stresses.
