Can eating beans reduce the risk of heart disease?

A recent study points out that the isoflavones in soybeans (and in lesser quantities in dried beans) play a key role in the chemical process that keeps your arteries supple. Bean eaters had higher levels of these isoflavones than women who didn't eat beans regularly. Then there's the recent study that found that women who ate these legumes at least four times a week had a 22% lower risk of heart disease than those who had a once-a-week habit.

Beans help to protect you from heart disease in part because of the natural soluble fiber they contain, which has a cholesterol-lowering effect.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
