Conclusion

Lupine protein is rich in

protein, as a proportion

30-40%, which is also

rich in arginine.

As it works to lower

cholesterol and fats in

the blood and thus

reduces the risk of

cardiovascular disease.

Recommendations

Lupine protein can be considered as a

valuable source of vegetable protein.

Adding modest amounts of lupine protein

in the diet can provide approach to reduce

high cholesterol in the blood, and thus

reduces the risk of cardiovascular disease.

"Lupinus" (Latin for "Wolf")

was named because of

it's strong ability to absorb

the metals from

contaminated soils.

Why it called

Lupin?
