The medium bean is the most widespread legume in our country. It is a hydrophilic, sun-loving, and warm-loving plant. Its origin is the area of Domokos, and it is cultivated in fertile soils with good drainage.

Medium beans are a good "ally" for a healthy heart. Thanks to their high content of soluble dietary fibers, they can significantly reduce cholesterol and triglyceride levels. With a low glycemic index, they contain an excellent mix of complex carbohydrates and proteins, slowing down the digestion process and helping maintain low blood glucose levels.
