Beans are legumes with a high nutritional content and represent a complete food due to their high protein content and their richness in starch which make them a particularly satiating and nutritious food. These vegetables have a high fiber content which makes them excellent for regulating intestinal transit and the correct functioning of the intestine and, consequently, of our immune system. They are rich in anthocyanins (substances that counteract the harmful activity of live radicals and therefore antioxidants) and therefore useful for preventing excessive oxidation of tissues and the onset of degenerative diseases. They are also rich in vitamin C (which has an antioxidant function and has a particularly beneficial role in maintaining healthy cardiac activity and the cardiovascular system) and group B vitamins (very useful for our cellular system and for our metabolism ). Beans also contain mineral salts in fair quantities (potassium, phosphorus, magnesium, iron, etc.) which give them remineralising and restorative properties. Beans can be consumed in soup combined with other legumes with a strong satiating power (chickpeas, lentils, etc.) and vegetables with a detoxifying and purifying action (carrots, peas, etc.). ) which give it remineralising and restorative properties.
