Jo Yoon-hee eats 'this bean' every morning... improving scalp health and preventing aging

Actor Jo Yoon-hee (42) revealed herself preparing and eating black beans for a simple yet healthy breakfast.

On the 29th, actor Jo Yoon-hee appeared on the TV Chosun entertainment program 'Now Alone.' In the video, Jo Yoon-hee, after sending her daughter Roa to school, was preparing her breakfast and said, "I make very thick black soybean milk by adding black soybean powder to black soybean soy milk." Host Park Mi-sun added, "You already have a lot of hair, and black soybean powder? You should take care of it." Let's learn about the benefits of black soybeans.

Eating a lot of black beans does not suppress hair loss progression. There are no studies on humans that verify the hair loss prevention effects of black beans. Black beans contain a large amount of phytoestrogens, which act similarly to estrogen. Phytoestrogens inhibit 5-alpha reductase and dihydrotestosterone, which are causes of male pattern baldness, and help improve scalp blood circulation. They also contain polyphenols, lysine, and other ingredients that promote healthy scalp and hair growth. However, these effects are only indirect in improving scalp health. It is difficult to be certain that eating black beans will make hair thicker once hair loss has already begun. Among the benefits of black beans, the most outstanding is anti-aging. Black beans contain four times more anti-aging components than regular soybeans. They also have strong antioxidant effects, thanks to the flavonoid pigment 'anthocyanin.' Additionally, the 'lecithin' in black beans helps lower cholesterol, provides antioxidant benefits, and supplies nutrients to the brain. Black beans are also known to be rich in dietary fiber, which helps prevent constipation and adult diseases.
