Properties of green beans for health
Green beans are a rich source of antioxidants and omega-3 fatty acids. Green beans are also low in calories and effectively heal wounds quickly.
It is interesting to know that the fiber in green beans is also very useful for those with digestive problems.
Not only are they relatively inexpensive, green beans are rich in vitamin C and beta-carotene, an antioxidant that gives fruits and vegetables their color.
The vegetable helps fight inflammation and is a good source of folate and potassium, which helps regulate blood pressure. Green beans also are a good source of protein and fiber, which helps lower cholesterol, Vadiveloo said.
