Benefits of green peas

1.     Cancer:   

Green beans contain a high amount of chlorophyll, which may block the carcinogenic effects of heterocyclic amines generated when grilling meats at a high temperature. Individuals who tend to like their grilled foods charred should pair them with green vegetables to decrease the risk

2.     Fertility: 

For women of child-bearing age, consuming more iron from plant sources such as spinach, beans, pumpkin, and green beans appears to promote fertility.It is important to pair iron-rich foods with vitamin C-rich foods like tomatoes, bell peppers, or berries to improve absorption of the iron.Adequate folic acid intake is also needed for pregnant women to protect their infants against neural tube defects. One cup of green beans provides approximately 10 percent of daily folic acid needs and 6 percent of iron.

3.     Depression: 

Meeting daily folate needs may also help with depression. Adequate folate consumption can prevent an excess of homocysteine in the body, which prevents blood and other nutrients from reaching the brain.Excess homocysteine can interfere with the production of the feel-good hormones serotonin, dopamine, and norepinephrine, which regulate mood, sleep, and appetite.

4.     Bone health

Low intake of vitamin K is associated with a higher risk of bone fracture. Adequate vitamin K consumption improves bone health by acting as a modifier of bone matrix proteins, improving calcium absorption, and reducing urinary excretion of calcium. One cup of green beans provides 14.4 micrograms of vitamin K (almost 20 percent of daily need) as well as 4 percent of calcium.
