Bulgur: Low Glycemic Index Vegan Superfood

Global consumer trends are pushing food importers toward natural, nutritious, and functional products. Nefis Agro’s high-fiber bulgur (boulgour, burghul) varieties offer a perfect answer to modern nutritional needs. Bulgur, a traditional Turkish grain, is now an ideal staple food for anyone seeking diabetes management and sustained energy due to its low Glycemic Index (GI) structure.

1. The Glycemic Index Difference: A Stable Energy Source

The Glycemic Index indicates how fast a food raises blood sugar. Unlike white rice and refined grains, bulgur retains the nutritious bran layer during processing, giving it a low Glycemic Index. This means it is digested slowly and does not cause sudden spikes in blood sugar. For importers, this feature makes bulgur a competitive product in the healthy eating and diet segments. Our Brown Bulgur Group, in particular, offers the highest fiber content.

2. Essential for Vegan and Diet Trends: High Fiber & Plant Protein

The rapidly growing global vegan and vegetarian market is increasing demand for plant-based protein sources. Bulgur is not just a base carbohydrate; it is also a significant source of vegetable protein.

A. Fiber Champion

Bulgur contains a much higher level of soluble and insoluble fiber compared to other grains. High fiber supports digestive health, prolongs satiety, and aids in weight management. When combined with our Pulses Group products (chickpeas, lentils), it forms a complete vegetarian meal.

B. Minerals and Vitamins

Naturally sun-dried bulgur (crushed wheat) is rich in vital minerals like B vitamins, magnesium, and iron. Importers can position bulgur on their shelves as a premium healthy product thanks to this nutrient profile.
