The major health benefit of common beans is their ability to lower cholesterol due to their rich source of fiber. Studies have shown the high fiber contained in beans prevents blood sugar levels from rising too rapidly after a meal. This makes beans an especially good choice for individuals with diabetes, insulin resistance or hypoglycemia.
