Do you know the benefits of green beans?
Originally from Mexico and Peru, green beans have gone from being a wild and untamed vegetable to being a champion on our plates. This vegetable is particularly rich in fiber. It helps promote transit and reduces the risk of developing colorectal cancer later on. Green beans are recommended, for example, in case of constipation.
*To lose weight
In addition to being diuretics, green beans have the advantage of being satiating. Thus, they can be consumed to appease our hunger, rather than throwing ourselves on fatty foods. They are perfect for diets and contain few calories.
*For diabetics
Green beans help regulate blood sugar levels. They are therefore an essential food for type 2 diabetics, for example.
*Against cardiovascular diseases
The fiber intake contained in green beans helps prevent the risk of developing cardiovascular disease, particularly thanks to the presence of soluble and insoluble fibers.
*To fight against osteoarthritis
Green beans contain potassium, which plays an essential role in blood circulation. They are also rich in iron and vitamins, and therefore help to stay in shape.
Excellent reasons to regularly consume green beans from our partner Congelados de Navarra! They are guaranteed without additives and preservatives because they are harvested at maximum ripeness, blanched and frozen within hours of harvest, which guarantees better food preservation.
Congelados de Navarra green beans are available in supermarkets, frozen food sections.
