Do Common Beans (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) Promote Good Health in Humans? A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Clinical and Randomized Controlled Trials
2021 Oct 21 Nutrients Nchanji EB, Ageyo OC
The analysis of 23 papers on common bean consumption and its impact on health outcomes reveals mixed findings. Common beans can reduce LDL cholesterol and cardiovascular diseases however, results vary due to factors like bean variety, agro-ecological zones, and bean form (extract or whole). In terms of cancer, research lacks specificity and further studies are needed. Diabetes and obesity studies show potential benefits. Future research should focus on standardizing measurements and increasing participants for clear dietary recommendations.

Common Beans and Their Non-Digestible Fraction: Cancer Inhibitory Activity—An Overview
2013 Aug 02 Foods Campos-Vega R, Oomah B, Loarca-Piña G, Vergara-Castañeda H
Dietary modification by increasing the daily consumption of a wide variety of common beans is a practical strategy for consumers to optimize their health and reduce the risk of cancer. Beans are good sources of bioactive compounds and recent evidence provides information of their impact and mechanism of action on this pathology, mainly for non-digestible fraction of beans on colon cancer. This effect seems to be related mainly to cell proliferation, cell cycle, apoptosis, cell invasion and histone modulation.
