Red beans are so beneficial to the health that they can be used not only as food but also as a medicinal herb. When you think of red bean bread or red bean shaved ice, you might mistakenly think of red beans as being high in sugar, but that's not true. These foods are often made with added sugar and other ingredients. The winter solstice is coming up on the 21st, and on this day, people traditionally eat red bean porridge. Let's take a closer look at the uses and health benefits of red beans.

 

Controlling neutral fat in the blood , Contributes to the digestion and absorption of carbohydrates

 

Red beans are rich in B vitamins, which aid in the digestion and absorption of carbohydrates like rice and bread. They also contain lysine and tryptophan, which are lacking in grains, providing nutritional support. Their high saponin and choline content contribute to the regulation of neutral fat levels in the blood (National Institute of Agricultural Sciences data). Eating red beans with fatty foods promotes healthy blood flow and helps prevent vascular disease, which narrows and clogs blood vessels. The saponin in red beans causes them to foam when cooked and stimulates the intestines.

The vitamin B in red beans helps alleviate fatigue and prevent memory loss. They are also rich in potassium, which helps excrete salty substances (sodium) from the body. They contain more than four times the potassium of bananas, which are known to be rich in potassium. They also reduce puffiness in the face, hands, and feet and increase the amount of enzymes that lower blood pressure. They are highly effective in suppressing blood pressure. However, those with kidney problems should limit their intake of red beans due to the risk of hyperkalemia.

 

Helps reduce pollutants in skin and pores

 

The saponins in red beans help reduce impurities in the skin and pores. They are also known to have a whitening effect, reducing melanin pigments such as freckles and blemishes. This explains why they have long been used for facial cleansing and skin care. When purchasing red beans, look for ones with a deep red color, a glossy sheen, and thin skins. Avoid ones with large but uneven grains. Avoid those that float in water, as they are considered unhealthy.

 

firm red beans , Soak in water and boil ...

 

Red bean skins are tough. Wash them thoroughly, soak them in water, and then boil them until they become soft. The saponin in the red beans imparts a bitter taste. Discard the water used to boil the red beans to reduce the saponin content before using them again. This cooking method is especially helpful for those with sensitive stomach linings. When cooking rice, wash the red beans, add enough water to cover them, and bring to a boil. Once it boils, pour out the water, add another 3 cups of water, and boil until the beans are tender without bursting. This method is also useful for making red bean rice and mixed-grain rice.

 

==========

Red beans are mostly consumed as bread,

It's about the size of red bean porridge.

 

I don't think I've ever eaten red bean rice.

 

It seems like red beans contain a lot of B vitamins.

It seems that red beans are also good for blood pressure management.

    제가 싫어하는 팥에 이렇게 좋은 효능이 많다니 안 먹을 수가 없네요. 제가 중성지방을 조절해야 하는데 팥에 중성지방을 조절하는 영양소가 많다고 하니 앞으로 팥을 잘 챙겨먹어야 겠어요.
