| Fabaceae| Leguminosae| pea family
Nutritional Value: Many plants in the Fabaceae family are rich in nutrients and provide essential components of a balanced diet. Legumes, such as beans, lentils, peas, and chickpeas, are excellent sources of protein, dietary fiber, vitamins (such as folate), and minerals (including iron and potassium).
Protein Content: Legumes are particularly valued for their protein content. They are an important source of plant-based protein and are commonly consumed by vegetarians and vegans as an alternative to animal-based proteins.
Dietary Fiber: Legumes are high in dietary fiber, which has various health benefits. Dietary fiber contributes to digestive health, helps regulate blood sugar levels, and supports cardiovascular health.
Micronutrients: Legumes contain a range of micronutrients, including vitamins (such as B-vitamins) and minerals (such as magnesium and zinc), which are important for overall health.
Phytochemicals: Fabaceae plants contain phytochemicals, including flavonoids and polyphenols, which have antioxidant properties. Antioxidants help protect cells from damage caused by free radicals.
Nitrogen Fixation: Some plants in the Fabaceae family have a symbiotic relationship with nitrogen-fixing bacteria called rhizobia. This symbiosis allows these plants to convert atmospheric nitrogen into a form that can be used by plants, contributing to soil fertility.

Different labs use different software to read the sample. See this post for more details.
One lab may say you have none, another may say you have a lot! - This may be solely due to the software they are using to estimate.
We deem lab specific values using values from the KM method for each specific lab to be the most reliable.
