White Kidney Bean Extract

White Kidney Bean Extract Specification: Phaseolin1%, 4:1, 10:1 Active ingredient: Phaseolamin Plant Origin: Phaseolus Vulgaris L Plant Part Used: Seeds Appearance: Light Yellow fine powder Packaging: 25kg/paper drum Function: White kidney bean extract has the ability to block starches, so in effect it blocks the alpha-amylase enzyme, which plays an important role in digestion.

Alpha-amylase is required for the metabolism of starchy carbohydrates, which are found in foods like potatoes, rice and pasta. Complex carbohydrates must be broken down into smaller sections. These are known as dextrins. Dextrins are broken down even further, into glucose.

Glucose is either used for current energy, stored in muscle tissue or the liver, or stored as body fat. White kidney bean extract will help some of the starches that would normally be stored as body fat to pass through the body undigested.

White kidney bean extract may also be beneficial for lowering triglycerides, degenerative arthritis, coronary artery disease and obesity because of the ability it has to inhibit the body's digestion of complex carbohydrates
