Canned Beans: Benefits And Uses In A Healthy Diet

The rhythm of modern life often forces a person not to spend time on cooking, but to use semi-finished and ready-made meals in his diet, often damaging his figure and health.

The rhythm of modern life often forces a person not to spend time on cooking, but to use semi-finished and ready-made meals in his diet, often damaging his figure and health. However, there are foods that do not require much time to prepare, but are useful.

Canned beans are a modern, tasty and healthy option for a healthy diet. The advantages of canned beans are obvious: they do not need to be soaked for a long time and then boiled, because they are ready to eat, having all the properties of home-made beans, since the industrial production technology completely repeats cooking at home. That is why its presence in the diet of a modern person who monitors their weight and health in general is such a necessary and universal thing!

 

I recommend using "6 Acres" beans both for cooking vegetarian dishes and side dishes for fish, meat or poultry. It is also great for diet food.

In terms of protein content, beans are equal to some varieties of meat and fish. It goes great with tomatoes, garlic, lamb, beef, poultry, butter, cream, green vegetables, fresh or dried herbs.

The ideal composition of canned beans is one that includes only four ingredients: the beans themselves, water, salt and sugar. The only permitted preservative that may be used in the manufacture of this product is acetic acid. Canned beans of the 6 Sotok brand are based on two types of beans: the red Kidni variety and the white Alubiya variety. It is these varieties that I consider ideal for cooking and using in finished form to comply with the principles of a healthy diet.

 

The benefit of canned beans in general lies in the presence of a large amount of nutrients, vitamins and minerals. It has been experimentally proven that in this form up to 80% of minerals and 70% of vitamins are preserved in the product.

To meet the needs of the body in all the beneficial substances contained in the beans, it must be consumed at least 750 g per week: 200-250 g of canned beans per day. So banks of canned beans "6 Acres" weighing 425 grams with the recommended quantities are enough for 2 days. In this case, we must not forget about the rules of storage after opening the can.

It is worth remembering that the use of beans should be limited to people suffering from gastrointestinal diseases, and diseases associated with metabolic disorders, such as gout. In addition, it should be remembered that this product is digested for at least four hours, so it can cause flatulence.

Calorie content of canned red beans brand "6 Sotok" 99 kcal, white beans of the same brand: 85 kK

Of course, in choosing any product, one should focus on both nutritional and taste qualities. For me personally, the favorite in the line of canned beans is beans of the 6 Sotok brand. I use it as an example in my stories about the principles of healthy eating and foods that should be used in the diet.

Be healthy, don't get sick!
