6 Beans and pulses
豆类
Beans and pulses are high in fermentable-fibre, which isn’t easily absorbed by the body. Once eaten, they bind to cholesterol in the digestive tract and are then expelled through waste. Studies show that consuming a cup of beans – like kidney, chickpea or butter beans – once a day can reduce cholesterol by as much as 10% in six weeks.
豆类有很高的可发酵的纤维,不容易被身体吸收。一旦吃了,它们结合在消化区域的胆固醇,然后被排出体外。研究表明消耗一杯大豆-像腰子,鹰嘴豆或棉豆-一天一次会在六周内减少10%的胆固醇。
