Proteins are the building blocks of the body; They are needed for muscle growth and repair and weight loss.

High in fiber, in addition to protein, lentils used in sambar are also high in fiber. Sambar contains a variety of vegetables rich in fiber and anti-oxidants. Traditional sambar products include vegetables such as drumsticks, pumpkin, brinjal, okra, tomatoes and various high-fiber seasonal vegetables. Fiber takes longer to digest.
