Green beans are a good source of flavonoids and carotenoids, but the variety of those pigments was previously unknown. Flavonoids contain basic antioxidants like quercetin and kaempferol, but also more useful and beneficial ones like catechin and epicatechin. Catechin has been shown to reduce the severity of strokes. Carotenoids found in green beans contain antioxidants like beta-carotene and lutein.
