Black gram, also known as urad gram, is a pulse. The values here are for whole dried beans that have been soaked and boiled in unsalted water. They mainly provide carbohydrate and protein, with 14g of carbohydrate and 7.8g of protein per 100g. This amount also contains 0.4g of fat and 52mg of magnesium.
Carbohydrate provides energy, while protein supports the growth and repair of body tissues. Magnesium contributes to normal muscle and nerve function. Beans prepared without added salt have a low salt content, although adding salt during cooking or using salted sauces will change this. Full nutrient figures for the unsalted boiled beans are in the tables below.
