Health benefits of white beans

Just like other bean varieties, white beans are also very high sources of fiber. They are also a good source of protein, potassium, folate and certain vitamins such as B6 and C. White beans also yield significant amounts of iron and calcium. White beans contain vital nutrients that can help provide energy without raising blood pressure. Beans with nutrients like fiber, potassium, magnesium, and folate often reduce the risk of heart attacks. Their high fiber content makes white beans beneficial for lowering cholesterol, regulating blood sugar levels, and preventing cardiovascular disease.
