White Kidney Bean Extract Benefits
Weight Loss Aid
With more than 40 percent of the U.S. population considered to be clinically obese and another 30 percent overweight, most of us could stand to drop a few (or more) pounds. White kidney bean supplements can help you shed pounds by blocking the absorption of carbohydrates.
Moderate Blood Sugar
Feeding your gut flora is just one of the things resistant starch does, but it has also been shown to offer many more health benefits, including improving insulin sensitivity. Being ‘sensitive’ to something may not sound like a positive, but in the case of insulin it is.
Insulin resistance is an indicator of many serious illnesses, including heart disease, type 2 diabetes, metabolic syndrome and Alzheimer’s disease. Being insulin-sensitive means that your system is functioning correctly and that you have enough insulin to handle the glucose (sugar) that enters your bloodstream.
The effect of resistant starch on the system is striking. A supplement of 15-30 grams of resistant starch for a period of four weeks was shown to offer an improvement of up to 50 percent more insulin sensitivity (x, x). Maintaining healthy blood sugar and insulin levels add up to an improved quality of life and a lower risk of developing life-threatening illnesses.
Resistant starch has also been shown to lower blood sugar levels following a meal. Even better, it offers something called the ‘second meal effect,’ meaning that if you eat resistant starch at lunch, it can keep your blood sugar from spiking at dinner.
Colon Health
Colorectal cancer is the fourth most common cause of cancer death worldwide. Luckily, increasing your intake of fiber and resistant starch may lower your risk for developing this type of cancer. White kidney bean contains considerable amounts of fiber and resistant starch, which could be a positive sign for colon health.
Resistant starch, in particular, offers various benefits for the colon, including taming Crohn’s disease, ulcerative colitis, diarrhea and diverticulitis. Additionally, resistant starch may improve the rate of mineral absorption.
High In Protein
White kidney beans are an excellent source of vegetarian protein and one of the best plant proteins available. A cup of cooked kidney beans contains about 15 grams of protein. That accounts for more than a quarter of its total calories.
White kidney bean also contains special types of proteins, such as lectins and protease inhibitors. In high doses, lectins may interfere with metabolism, but some studies show that they offer protection against cancer and the growth of tumors.
As for protease inhibitors, they do exactly what they say they do — they inhibit protease, an enzyme that promotes the growth of cancers of the colon, breast and other types. Protease inhibitors also neutralize carcinogens found in foods.
Antioxidant Properties
Antioxidants are the darlings of the health-conscious community these days due to their ability to prevent premature aging, ward off major illness and help boost overall wellness. White kidney beans contain plenty of antioxidants, which protects the body from free radical damage and lowers the risk of diseases like cancer, Alzheimer’s, arthritis and heart disease, to name just a few.
While everyone wants clean arteries and healthy cell mitochondria, these things are hard to see. But antioxidants also produce visible effects. Free radicals can really do a number on your skin. Besides being high in antioxidants, white kidney beans also contain protein and minerals like copper and zinc that offer protective effects against premature aging.
