These vegetables also contain a toxic protein antitrypsin, whose toxicity is manifested by inhibiting the activity of protease and causing pancreatic enlargement. The seeds (and pollen) of Vicia faba contain a kind of nestin called Vicia faba toxin, which can destroy red blood cells. Eating poorly cooked broad beans will induce hemolytic anemia, which is also known as "bean disease". The toxic substances contained in legumes and vegetables lose their activity after heating, so they must be fried thoroughly and cooked before eating.

Nutritional value of beans: There is a saying in the traditional diet that "five grains are suitable for nutrition, but beans are not well lost", which means that eating whole grains can keep you healthy, but not eating beans will make the nutrition unbalanced. Beans are generally characterized by high protein and low fat. Among them, protein is high in content, good in quality, close to animal protein and close to human needs in amino acid composition, so it is also called "vegetable meat" and can replace some meat.
The characteristics of low fat, coupled with the fact that some beans are mainly composed of easily digested and absorbed unsaturated fatty acids, can be used as healthy food to prevent coronary heart disease, hypertension and arteriosclerosis, and can also be used as an alternative food for weight loss and beauty. In addition, beans are rich in mineral elements and vitamins, with the most calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, potassium and vitamin B.
