what it claims

Increase your consumption of beans to meet fiber and protein requirements, which helps regulate bowel movements, lower cholesterol, and manage weight.

holds up

Recommending beans for their high fiber and nutrient content is scientifically very sound.

Recommending beans for their high fiber and nutrient content is scientifically very sound. A meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) published in the Canadian Medical Association Journal by Ha et al. (2014) confirms that daily consumption of legumes significantly reduces cholesterol. Regarding weight management, another meta-analysis of RCTs published in The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition (Kim et al., 2016) demonstrates that legumes promote fat mass loss and improve satiety. As for bowel movements, the effect of fiber is widely supported by observational studies and reviews of scientific literature. The only drawback, which is purely practical, is that an overly rapid increase in fiber can cause temporary bloating in some people. Ultimately, the benefits highlighted by Kylie are validated by high-level evidence.
