WHY A CARDIOLOGIST WOULD APPRECIATE THE CENTRAL MARKET-BRAND H.E.B. 'ALL NATURAL ROASTED RED PEPPER HUMMUS' FROM H.E.B. SUPERMARKETS OF SAN ANTONIO:

This "Central Market" (registered trademark) brand hummus contains zero grams of saturated fat per two-tablespoon serving, according to the ingredients label for that Middle-Eastern-style food product.

So far, I have not identified any other brand of hummus on display inside my neighborhood H.E.B. supermarket that also features ZERO grams of saturated fat per two-tablespoon serving.

That is a huge advantage to the Central Market-brand roasted red pepper hummus. I might add that several of the other Central Market-brand hummus products at H.E.B. stores also feature zero grams of saturated fat per serving.

Just as important, this particular brand of roasted red-pepper hummus is delicious. It is also a product true to its name: according to the ingredients label, the two leading ingredients are chickpeas and roasted red peppers.

Another advantage to the Central Market-brand roasted red pepper hummus: each serving contains only 120 mg, or 5 percent of the recommended maximum daily consumption of sodium.

Low in saturated fat and low in sodium: this is exactly what a first-rate cardiologist would recommend.

Other advantages to this "Central Market" brand of roasted red-pepper hummus that is offered in H.E.B. supermarkets throughout Texas and in northeastern Mexico:

---Zero grams of trans fat per serving;

---Zero grams of cholesterol per serving;

---1 gram of fiber per serving;

---1 gram of protein per serving;

----only 1 gram of sugar per serving.

Each two-tablespoon serving of the Central Market brand of roasted red-pepper hummus also contains:
--2 percent of the recommended daily intake for

 Vitamin A; 

--2 percent of the recommended daily intake for Iron; 

and

--4 percent of the recommended daily intake for Vitamin C.
