What benefits does white kidney bean extract have?

White kidney bean extract contains phaseolinase, alpha-amylase inhibitor. White kidney beans, also known as cannellini beans, contain an active ingredient called phaseolamin. Phaseolamin blocks the action of alpha-amylase, a digestive enzyme needed to metabolize carbohydrate food sources.

White kidney bean extract benefits

1. Block starchy food calories, weight control

The α-amylase inhibitor in white kidney bean can completely block the interaction channel between the substrate and the α-amylase active site, so that the activity of α-amylase in the human oral cavity and pancreas decreases, and the starch cannot be completely decomposed Monosaccharides into small molecules are absorbed by the human body, so as to control the conversion of starch into calories to be ingested.

Take it before meals to block the enzymatic decomposition of 70%-80% starch and other polysaccharides in the food, so that the absorption in the digestive tract is reduced and slowed down, and it is directly excreted through the end of the digestive tract, but does not affect the absorption of other nutrients.

2. Blood sugar control

Alpha-amylase inhibitors can inhibit the activity of saliva and pancreatic amylase in the gastrointestinal tract, hinder or delay the body's hydrolysis and digestion of the main carbohydrates in food, and reduce the decomposition and absorption of starch carbohydrates in food, thereby reducing blood sugar., The role of blood lipids, inhibit the increase of blood sugar concentration, so as to meet the dietary habits of diabetic patients.

3. White kidney bean extract may also protect against colon cancer in the same way as soluble fiber.

By inhibiting alpha-amylase, Alpha-AI1 prevents long-chain carbohydrates from being ingested into the small intestine (providing nutritional value in humans). This causes the starches to pass through the colon, where they are potentially fermented by bacteria. In this way, Alpha-AI1 can make ingested carbohydrates act like probiotics.

When fermented, these carbohydrates can release short-chain fatty acids, including propionate, butyrate, and acetate. These short-chain fatty acids are thought to be associated with a reduced risk of colon cancer (as shown in experimentally induced animal models) and have other benefits such as regulation of insulin/glucagon release.

4. Polysaccharide and dietary fiber meal

There are two main types of dietary fiber. Among them, insoluble dietary fiber can absorb water, soften feces, increase the volume of feces, stimulate intestinal peristalsis, accelerate defecation, reduce the time that harmful substances in feces are in contact with the intestines, and reduce the risk of colon cancer. Probability; Water-soluble dietary fiber has the function of adjusting the metabolism of carbohydrates and lipids, and has a good effect on reducing the content of cholesterol in the human body and preventing cardiovascular diseases.

5. Flavonoids

Bioflavonoids have a variety of biological activities, and have important functions such as antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, anti-mutation, antihypertensive, heat-clearing and detoxifying, improving microcirculation, anti-tumor, and anti-oxidation.

6. Phytohemagglutinin

Phytohemagglutinin, referred to as phytohemagglutinin, is mainly a glycoprotein extracted and isolated from plant seeds. Because of its specific binding to sugar, it has important and special biological functions in animals and plants. It has shown very broad application prospects in clinical disease prevention and control, regulation of physiological activities of the body, and bioengineering.

7. Food Coloring

Natural pigments exist in edible organisms (mainly in edible plants) and are extremely safe to eat. However, natural food colorings are generally difficult to crystallize and have poor light and thermal stability, which limit their application value. The kidney bean pigment has good light, thermal stability and crystallinity, so it has a broad development prospect. The pigment added to food can not only color, but also have antioxidant and antibacterial effects.

8. Trypsin inhibitor

Trypsin inhibitor is a class of natural anti-insect substances, which can weaken or block the digestion of food proteins by proteases in the digestive tract of insects and cause abnormal development or death of insects. It has potential application value in tumor suppression.

9. Protein

White kidney beans contain unique components such as uremic enzymes and a variety of globulins, which can improve the body's own immunity, enhance disease resistance, activate lymphoid T cells, promote the synthesis of deoxyribonucleic acid, etc., and inhibit the development of tumor cells.
