1. Saponin, fat build-up inhibition effect

The reason why we should pay attention to red beans is because of saponin in red beans. The main ingredient of red beans is carbohydrates, which are more protein than other grains. Saponin in red beans promotes diuretic and metabolism to suppress unnecessary fat accumulation in the body.
 

2. Reduce potassium and sodium emissions & swelling

Red beans are also rich in potassium. Potentium helps release sodium accumulated from salty food intake into the body, reduces edema, and suppresses blood pressure increases.
However, people with weak kidneys and digestive functions should not consume too much red beans with high potassium content.
 

3. Improved constipation with abundant dietary fiber

The dietary fiber in red beans is 13 times the size of apples and 5 times the size of sweet potatoes. Dietary fiber absorbs and releases cholesterol or improves constipation to help you lose weight. The dietary fiber per 100g of red beans is 12.2g.

Diet with simple red bean water

If you are on a diet, it is recommended to simply boil red bean water. Wash the red beans clean, soak them for about a day, heat them on low heat, sift the red beans, and drink the remaining water. If you eat red bean water for the first time, it's better to put a lot of water and make it soft.
You can put the boiled red bean water in a water bottle and keep it refrigerated and drink about 5 cups a day. If you drink too much red bean water, the diuretic effect will become too active, which can lead to chronic dehydration.

Various ways to enjoy red beans

It's also a way to make rice with red beans mixed together. Sometimes, when you cook rice, you take out the red bean shell and eat only white sediment, which has a lot of nutritional loss, so make sure to make rice with the skin.
It is also good to make a red bean latte on a cold day and heat your cold body with a diet. Heat the milk in a pot and mix the boiled red beans together to complete the red bean latte.

Alarm, Cause of Chronic Fatigue?

Among the workers who have to go to work early in the morning, many alarms are set in several minutes to wake up at a fixed time. However, there is a study that sets several alarms like this can cause chronic fatigue. According to a study by Professor of Sleep Medicine at Harvard University, Buxton, the human body releases awakening hormones when it wakes up after hearing an alarm. However, when you turn off the alarm and lie back down, the activity of the awakening hormone is delayed and the adenosine, a substance that causes fatigue, is secreted, making the human body asleep inertial state that is not fully awake from sleep. Sleep inertia usually lasts 30 minutes and 2 hours long. If you wake up in an alarm every few minutes and then fall asleep again, sleep inertia lasts longer.
