Maintain a Healthy Body Weight

Numerous research has looked at the effects of hummus on weight reduction and maintenance. It's interesting to note that a nationwide survey found that those who regularly ate hummus or chickpeas were 53% less likely to be fat. The average waist circumference of those who frequently ate chickpeas or hummus was 2.2 inches (5.5 cm) less than that of those who did not. They also had lower BMIs. However, it's not fully obvious whether these outcomes were caused by particular qualities of chickpeas or hummus or just by the fact that people who consume these meals have generally healthy lives. Larger consumption of legumes like chickpeas has also been associated with decreased body weight and increased satiety in other research.


There are a number of qualities in hummus that might support weight loss. It is an excellent source of dietary fiber, which has been proven to increase levels of the hormones cholecystokinin (CCK), peptide YY, and GLP-1, which are associated with feeling full. Additionally, dietary fiber has been demonstrated to lower ghrelin levels, which is a hunger hormone. Fiber may aid in lowering calorie intake, which encourages weight reduction, by suppressing hunger. Hummus is also a fantastic source of plant-based protein. A higher protein diet has been found to help reduce hunger and increase metabolism.
