% DV refers to how much a single serving of an individually packaged food or supplement contributes nutritionally to your daily diet, based on a 2,000-calorie-a-day diet. Generally, having 5% DV or less of a nutrient per serving is considered low, and 20% DV or more of a nutrient per serving is considered high.
Fat Composition
The suggested total fat consumption should be limited to 30% of total energy intake or less. The type of fat consumed should primarily be unsaturated fatty acids, with no more than 10% of total energy intake coming from saturated fatty acids (about 200 calories on a 2000-calorie diet) and no more than 1% of total energy intake coming from trans-fatty acids.

FAQ
Yes. 1 cup has about 200 kcal, 35.71 g carbs, 11.18 g fiber, and 13.3 g protein, so the fiber and protein may help slow the blood sugar rise compared with lower fiber carb foods for those with diabetes.
No, they tend to be very low in sodium when boiled without salt. 1 cup has about 6.88 mg sodium, which is very low compared with the American Heart Association limit of 2,300 mg per day (ideal 1,500 mg for most adults).
It depends, they may fit some renal diets, but not all. The low sodium is a plus (6.88 mg per cup), but potassium is about 478.16 mg per cup, and CKD guidance often requires careful limits on sodium, potassium, and phosphorus depending on stage and labs. This is one of those foods that may be fine for some people, but others may need a smaller portion or a dietitian check.
It depends. Black eyed peas (1 cup) provide 200 kcal, 35.71 g carbs, 11.18 g fiber, 13.3 g protein, while lentils (1 cup equivalent, boiled without salt) are roughly 230 kcal, 39.9 g carbs, 15.6 g fiber, 17.9 g protein, so lentils may offer more fiber and protein, while black eyed peas may be a bit lower in calories and carbs for the same portion.
They are unlikely to raise blood pressure on their own, especially the no salt version. The sodium is very low (6.88 mg per cup), and high sodium intake is one of the main diet factors that tends to push blood pressure up. In fact, legume rich eating patterns may support blood pressure control in some people, although overall diet pattern still matters most.
