Kidney beans and health

Beans are extremely good for our health, but many people are not aware of this. Kidney beans (kidney beans), as the name suggests, provide sufficient energy in the kidneys. The kidneys are part of a large number of hormonal control circuits, which mainly relate to water and salt balance, blood pressure and the pH regulation of the blood. The beans also contain a large amount of magnesium. This mineral is very important for your muscles and energy.

Magnesium

Magnesium is also a natural tranquilizer and anti-stress agent. It is therefore very important to get enough magnesium. A magnesium deficiency can cause unpleasant symptoms.

Red kidney beans

Red kidney beans are red-brown in color. They are native to North and Central America. The beans have a slightly sweet taste. When purchasing, make sure that the beans do not have brown spots and store them in a cool place. Preferably in the refrigerator.

Red kidney beans have a long soaking time (about 8 to 12 hours) and are then boiled for at least one hour. They are often used in the preparation of salads or with southern dishes such as ‘Chili con carne’. Of course you can also buy them in a can, but this is where the danger of unwanted additives comes into play.
