Health Benefits of Lupin

Lupinology

Did you know that 85% of the world’s lupins are grown Down Under? While lupins have been grown in Australia for more than 150 years, it’s only recently that we got the bright idea that they are good for our health.

With a slightly nutty flavour, these tasty little legumes use minimal water to grow and help put nitrogen back into the ground. All of this reduces the need for fertilisers, making them great for Aussie farmers as well as for our bodies. Lupin legendary!
