About Red Bean
Common legume; notable for carbs and fibre.
Health Benefits of Red Bean
Rich in dietary fibre
100g of red beans has 7.7g fibre - standout among beans. Fibre supports bowel movement and satiety. Red beans are used in red-bean paste, red-bean soup and eight-treasure congee - a common grain-legume staple.
High in iron and potassium
Red beans are rich in iron, potassium and magnesium. Potassium helps electrolyte balance; iron is key in haemoglobin. Eating them with vitamin C-rich foods improves iron absorption.
Pair with grains for amino-acid complement
Cooking red beans with rice or coix improves amino-acid complementarity and total protein use. Red-bean+coix congee is a classic; red-bean paste and sweet soup are popular desserts.
