Summary
Red beans, also known as adzuki beans, are widely used in traditional vegetarian and Chinese medicinal diets. With their red color linked to heart nourishment in TCM theory, red beans are both a diuretic and a blood tonic. Rich in iron, folate, B vitamins, and various minerals, they are considered a natural remedy for blood deficiency, especially beneficial for women, those recovering from illness, or people with chronic fatigue. This article explores their nutritional value and health-promoting functions, with practical tips for daily consumption.

4.B Vitamins: Maintain nervous system function, assist iron absorption, and boost immunity.
5.Polyphenols and Fiber: Offer antioxidant protection, support cardiovascular health, and promote digestion.
