Vitamin B6 (undefined% DV) helps produce serotonin and GABA — calming neurotransmitters that counter cortisol.

🦋

Thyroid 11% DV

Selenium (undefined% DV) converts T4 to active T3. Essential for thyroid function.

🏥

Anemia

iron + folate. Iron-deficiency is the most common nutritional deficiency. Vitamin C increases non-heme iron absorpt.

🏥

Pcos

magnesium + zinc. Insulin resistance drives 70%+ of PCOS. These nutrients improve insulin sensitivity, reduce androgen.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does Refried beans, canned, traditional, reduced sodium support gut health?

Refried beans, canned, traditional, reduced sodium contains 3.7g of fiber per 100g (13% DV). Fiber feeds beneficial gut bacteria, which produce short-chain fatty acids (butyrate) that reduce inflammation, strengthen the gut barrier, and improve insulin sensitivity.

Does Refried beans, canned, traditional, reduced sodium affect hormones?

Yes — Refried beans, canned, traditional, reduced sodium is rich in fiber (13% DV), which Binds excess estrogen in gut for excretion (enterohepatic circulation interruption). Slows glucose absorption → lower insulin spikes.. fiber supports Estrogen and Insulin production. selenium supports T3 (active thyroid) and Testosterone production.

Is Refried beans, canned, traditional, reduced sodium good for blood pressure?

Yes. Refried beans, canned, traditional, reduced sodium provides 319mg of potassium per 100g (7% DV). Potassium helps lower blood pressure by counteracting sodium's effects and relaxing blood vessel walls. The sodium-to-potassium ratio is 2.3.

Does Refried beans, canned, traditional, reduced sodium contain anti-nutrients?

Phytates (reduce zinc, iron, calcium absorption 20-60%). Lectins (can irritate gut lining — destroyed by proper cooking). Soaking 12-24h reduces phytates 30-50%. Cooking destroys lectins and protease inhibitors. Fermentation (tempeh, miso) reduces all anti-nutrients. Sprouting increases nutrient bioavailability. Benefits (fiber, protein, minerals) far outweigh anti-nutrient concerns for most people.
