This vegetable contains more plant protein, carbohydrates, vitamins and inorganic salts than other vegetables.
The content of vitamin B is the highest, among which vitamin B 1 is the most.

So what are the benefits of B vitamins to the body?
Vitamin B 1 becomes an anti-beriberi factor and an anti-neuritis factor or thiamine, which is absorbed in the small intestine, phosphorylated in the controlled mucosal cells to form pyrophosphate, transported to the liver through the portal vein for metabolism, and then transported to the tissues through the blood. Metabolites are mainly excreted by the kidneys with urine, and the excretion is related to the intake.

Vitamin B 1 deficiency can cause beriberi, which mainly damages the neurovascular system, and often occurs in people who take refined rice flour as their staple food.
The early symptoms of beriberi in adults are relatively mild, mainly including fatigue, apathy, poor appetite, nausea, depression, impatience, depression, severe numbness, abnormal electrocardiogram and so on.
Adult beriberi can be divided into three types:
①? Dry beriberi: Multiple peripheral neuritis is the main symptom, accompanied by ascending peripheral neuritis, characterized by numbness of fingers (toes), muscle pain and tenderness, especially gastrocnemius muscle. Knee jerk reflex is hyperactive in the early stage of the disease, and weakened or even disappeared in the later stage. The upward development involves leg flexors and arm muscles, leading to ankle suspension symptoms.
②? Wet beriberi: edema and heart symptoms are the main symptoms. Due to the disorder of cardiovascular system, edema appears, the right ventricle can be enlarged, palpitation, shortness of breath and tachycardia appear, which often leads to heart failure if not treated in time.
③? Mixed beriberi: Mixed beriberi (dry and wet) is characterized by neuritis, heart failure and edema.
In addition, people who drink alcohol for a long time are also prone to acute neuroencephalopathy syndrome due to alcoholism.
?
Infantile beriberi mostly occurs in infants of 2-5 months, mostly due to the lack of vitamin B 1 by wet nurses. Its onset is sudden and its condition is urgent. At the initial stage, it is anorexia, vomiting, excitement, rapid heartbeat, shortness of breath and difficulty, and at the later stage, it is cyanosis edema, which usually leads to sudden death two days after symptoms appear 1-2, causing serious life threats.
Therefore, pregnant mothers must ensure the intake of vitamin B 1 and eat beans in moderation.
Vitamin B 1 generally does not cause excessive poisoning.
