Black beans are as nutritious as soybeans! The "black bean diet" is popular in Korea and helps to get rid of the big belly

Red beans, mung beans, and soybeans are all beans that are commonly eaten by people, but do you know? The nutritional value of black beans is not inferior to other beans! Li Shizhen of the Ming Dynasty recorded in "Compendium of Materia Medica": "Eating black beans regularly can prevent all kinds of diseases." In Korea, black beans are a must-have side dish on every household's table. Not only because they taste chewy and delicious, but they are also a savior for getting rid of "bubble belly"!

Black beans are rich in dietary fiber, which promotes digestion and prevents constipation

The "black bean diet" has been popular in Korea for a long time. It uses black beans to help improve blood circulation, edema, and enrich dietary fiber. According to the American health website "Live Strong", black beans themselves contain almost no saturated fat, and the soluble fiber in black beans can prolong the feeling of fullness, thereby controlling blood sugar levels and reducing insulin secretion, thus preventing fat from being stored in the body.

In addition, the rich dietary fiber in black beans can also accelerate gastrointestinal motility and promote digestion. There are 18.2 grams of dietary fiber per 100 grams, of which 5.4 grams are crude fiber. For those who are prone to constipation or have a fat belly, it is advisable to consume it in moderation.

Black beans themselves contain almost no saturated fat, and the soluble fiber in black beans can prolong the feeling of fullness, thereby controlling blood sugar levels and reducing insulin secretion, thus preventing fat from being stored in the body.

Black beans are rich in protein and provide good metabolic power

Protein is the main source of energy for the body. The protein content in black beans is equivalent to 3 times that of eggs and 12 times that of milk. For every 100 grams of black beans, there are 34.6 grams of protein, 32.3 grams of carbohydrates and 11.6 grams of fat, and the fat is almost all unsaturated fatty acids.

Black beans are difficult to digest when eaten raw, 2.5 tablespoons per day

Raw black beans contain trypsin inhibitors, which reduce protein absorption and utilization; however, this ingredient is harmless to the human body as long as it is cooked. In addition, the saponins and anti-trypsin in black soy milk can easily cause nausea, vomiting, abdominal distension, abdominal pain, diarrhea, dizziness and headache when consumed raw, and they can only be destroyed by boiling for 5 minutes.
