Dietitian's Tips for Consuming Refried beans, red, canned

  • Metabolic Effect: The 4.7g of fiber per 100g serving stabilizes your blood sugar and provides a lasting sense of fullness while slowing digestion. Its 1.95mg iron content supports oxygen transport in your blood, helping you maintain high energy levels throughout the day.
  • Consumption Tip: I often suggest my clients spread this paste inside whole-wheat wraps to gain a 5.0g protein boost for their meals. Given its 6.93g fat content, using this as a natural spread instead of high-calorie sauces will significantly enhance your nutritional intake.
  • What to Watch For: Due to being canned, the 375mg of sodium per 100g can cause water retention and bloating in your body. If you have blood pressure sensitivities, you should limit consumption or pair it with fresh greens to balance out the salt effect.
  • Exercise Equivalent: You will need a 40-minute brisk walk to burn off the 144 calories consumed in a single serving. Alternatively, 15 minutes of jumping rope will quickly convert that carbohydrate load into usable energy.
