Health Benefits Of Arbi
1. Weight Loss
Arbi is an excellent source of dietary fibre that keeps us full for a long time and prevents high intake of food. A 100 gram portion of arbi contains 5.1 grams of fibre. Its low caloric content also facilitates weight management and aids in losing extra kilos.

2. Helps In Combating Diabetes
Arbi is a known low glycaemic food that slows down the process of breaking down of glucose in the liver. It also contains resistant starch that is not easily absorbed and digested. This slows down the rise of blood sugar level after a meal. Its corm is packed with complex carbohydrates, which is again not easily digestible.

3. Protects Heart
The high fibre content of arbi reduces the cholesterol level in the body. Arbi is a zero fat and zero cholesterol food. It also contains a good amount of vitamin E that fights off cardiovascular issues to a large extent.
