Beans and legumes have a number of health benefits, including reducing cholesterol, decreasing blood sugar levels and increasing healthy gut bacteria.


Here are nine of the healthiest beans and legumes you can eat, and why they are good for you.


1. Chickpeas 병아리콩

Also known as garbanzo beans, chickpeas are a great source of fiber and protein.


Many scientific studies have shown that beans and legumes such as chickpeas can help reduce weight, risk factors for heart disease and potentially even the risk of cancer, especially when they replace red meat in the diet (1, 2, 3, 4, 5).


One cup (164 grams) of cooked chickpeas contains roughly (6):


Calories: 269

Protein: 14.5 grams

Fiber: 12.5 grams

Folate (vitamin B9): 71% of the RDI

Manganese: 84% of the RDI

Copper: 29% of the RDI

Iron: 26% of the RDI


Chickpeas are particularly beneficial at reducing blood sugar and increasing insulin sensitivity when compared with other high-carb foods (7).


In a study of 19 women, those who ate a meal containing 1.7 ounces (50 grams) of chickpeas had significantly lower blood sugar and insulin levels than those who ate the same amount of white bread or other wheat-containing foods (8).


Similarly, another study of 45 people showed that eating 26 ounces (728 grams) of chickpeas per week for 12 weeks significantly reduced insulin levels (9).


Eating chickpeas may also improve blood cholesterol levels.


A number of studies have shown that chickpeas can reduce both total cholesterol and “bad” low-density-lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol, which are risk factors for heart disease (10, 11).


Your gut and the beneficial bacteria within it play an important role in many aspects of your health, so eating foods that contain gut-friendly fiber is extremely beneficial.


A number of studies have shown that diets containing chickpeas may also help improve bowel function and reduce the number of bad bacteria in the intestines (12, 13).


SUMMARY

Chickpeas are a great source of fiber and folate, and they’re also low in calories. They can help reduce blood sugar, decrease blood cholesterol and improve gut health.


2. Lentils 렌틸콩

Lentils are a great source of vegetarian protein and can be great additions to soups and stews. They may also have a number of health benefits (14).


One cup (198 grams) of cooked lentils contains roughly (15):


Calories: 230

Protein: 17.9 grams

Fiber: 15.6 grams

Folate (vitamin B9): 90% of the RDI

Manganese: 49% of the RDI

Copper: 29% of the RDI

Thiamine (vitamin B1): 22% of the RDI


Similar to chickpeas, lentils can help reduce blood sugar compared to other foods.


In a study of 24 men, those who were given pasta and tomato sauce containing lentils ate significantly less during the meal and had lower blood sugar than those who ate the same meal without lentils (16).


Another study of more than 3,000 people found that those with the highest intake of lentils and other legumes had the lowest rates of diabetes (17).


These benefits may be due to the effects lentils have in the gut.


Some studies have shown that lentils benefit gut health by improving bowel function and slowing the rate that the stomach empties, which could help with digestion and prevent spikes in blood sugar (18, 19).


Finally, lentil sprouts may also help heart health by reducing “bad” LDL cholesterol and increasing “good” HDL cholesterol (20).


SUMMARY

Lentils are a great source of vegetarian protein and may reduce blood sugar levels compared to some other foods that are high in carbohydrates.


3. Peas 완두콩

Peas are also a type of legume, and there are a number of different types.


One cup (160 grams) of cooked peas contains roughly (21):


Calories: 125

Protein: 8.2 grams

Fiber: 8.8 grams

Folate (vitamin B9): 24% of the RDI

Manganese: 22% of the RDI

Vitamin K: 48% of the RDI

Thiamine (vitamin B1): 30% of the RDI


Like many other legumes, peas are a great source of fiber and protein. A lot of research has shown pea fiber and protein, which can be used as supplements, to have a number of health benefits.


One study of 23 people who were overweight and had high cholesterol found that eating 1.8 ounces (50 grams) of pea flour per day for 28 days significantly reduced insulin resistance and belly fat, compared to wheat flour (22).


Pea flour and pea fiber have shown similar benefits in other studies by reducing the increase in insulin and blood sugar after a meal, reducing blood triglycerides and increasing feelings of fullness (23, 24, 25).


Because fiber feeds the healthy bacteria in your gut, pea fiber may also improve gut health. One study showed that it can increase stool frequency in elderly people and reduce their use of laxatives (26).


It may also help the growth of healthy bacteria in the intestines, such as Lactobacilli and Bifidobacteria. These bacteria produce short-chain fatty acids, which help promote gut health (27).


SUMMARY

Peas are a great source of fiber and protein, which may help reduce blood sugar and insulin resistance. Pea fiber and protein support a healthy gut, as well.
