Disclaimer : All vegetable items may have difference in weights as it is difficult
to really peg an exact weight per item. We adjust the weights of items so that the
total bill will still be the Total Shopping Cart Bill especially if cart includes
items with unstable prices. Vegetable Leaves are sold per “tali” and 100 grams is
an estimated weight based on the prevailing price of the item. We try to come up with
the best price in the online market and usually sell items lower than grocery prices
and comparable to prevailing market price.
Baguio Beans benefits can be explained as follow:
Cancer Fighting
Green beans contain a high amount of chlorophyll.
This may block the carcinogenic effects of heterocyclic amines that are generated when grilling meats at a high temperature. Individuals who prefer their grilled foods charred should pair them with green vegetables to decrease the risk.
Fertility and pregnancy
For women of child-bearing age, consuming more iron from plant sources such as spinach, beans, pumpkin, and green beans appears to promote fertility, according to Harvard Medical School.
Pairing iron-rich foods with vitamin C-rich foods like tomatoes, bell peppers, or berries can improve iron absorption.
Adequate folic acid intake is also needed during pregnancy, to protect the fetus against neural tube defects. One cup of green beans provides approximately 10 percent of daily folic acid needs and 6 percent of iron.
Depression
Meeting daily folate needs may also help with depression.
Adequate folate consumption can prevent an excess of homocysteine in the body.
Too much homocysteine can stop blood and other nutrients from reaching the brain, and it can interfere with the production of the feel-good hormones serotonin, dopamine, and norepinephrine, which regulate mood, sleep, and appetite.
Bone health
A low intake of vitamin K is associated with a higher risk of bone fracture.
Adequate vitamin K consumption improves bone health by modifying bone matrix proteins, improving calcium absorption, and reducing urinary excretion of calcium.
