3 Surprising Health Benefits of Fava Beans

1) Improve Heart Health: Fava beans are rich in dietary fiber, with three grams per every 1.2 ounce serving. That’s nearly 12 percent of the daily recommended value for fiber. Most notably, fava beans are a good source of soluble fiber, which can help improve blood sugar and lower LDL cholesterol levels. A handful of fava beans can go a long way to support a healthy heart!

2) Control Weight: Packed with eight grams of protein per serving, fava beans are a satisfying snack. The combination of protein and fiber in these crunchy beans makes them particularly filling. If you need a post-workout pick-me-up, fava beans are perfect for taking to the gym or munching on after a jog.

3) Rich in B-Vitamins: Load up on important B-vitamins by incorporating these roasted fava beans into your snack-time routine. Fava beans provide a healthy dose of thiamine (B1), riboflavin (B2), niacin (B3), folate and more. The B-vitamins work together to help the body convert food into energy.
