Health Condition Relevance
Anemia
iron, vitamin c, folate. Iron-deficiency is the most common nutritional deficiency. Vitamin C increases non-heme iron absorpt.
Pcos
magnesium, zinc, fiber. Insulin resistance drives 70%+ of PCOS. These nutrients improve insulin sensitivity, reduce androgen.
Testosterone Low
zinc, magnesium, selenium. Zinc for 5α-reductase and aromatase inhibition. Mg reduces SHBG. D3 activates Leydig cells. Boron si.
Hormonal & Metabolic Impact
🧬 Zinc → Testosterone, DHT (21% DV)
Cofactor for 5α-reductase (T→DHT). Required for androgen receptor function. Inhibits aromatase (T→estradiol).
🧬 Magnesium → Testosterone, Cortisol (45% DV)
Reduces SHBG → more free T. Lowers cortisol by suppressing ACTH. Required for vitamin D activation (which also supports T).
🧬 Vitamin B6 → Progesterone, Dopamine (26% DV)
Cofactor for neurotransmitter synthesis (serotonin, dopamine, GABA). Supports progesterone production in luteal phase.
🧬 Selenium → T3 (active thyroid), Testosterone (23% DV)
Required for T4→T3 conversion (deiodinase enzyme). Selenoproteins protect Leydig cells from oxidative damage.

Beans, great northern, mature seeds, raw (Includes foods for USDA's Food Distribution Program) contains 20.2g of fiber per 100g (72% DV). Fiber feeds beneficial gut bacteria, which produce short-chain fatty acids (butyrate) that reduce inflammation, strengthen the gut barrier, and improve insulin sensitivity. The high fiber content also slows glucose absorption, reducing insulin spikes.
Does Beans, great northern, mature seeds, raw (Includes foods for USDA's Food Distribution Program) affect hormones?
Yes — Beans, great northern, mature seeds, raw (Includes foods for USDA's Food Distribution Program) is rich in fiber (72% DV), which Binds excess estrogen in gut for excretion (enterohepatic circulation interruption). Slows glucose absorption → lower insulin spikes.. fiber supports Estrogen and Insulin production. magnesium supports Testosterone and Cortisol production. vitamin b6 supports Progesterone and Dopamine production.
Is Beans, great northern, mature seeds, raw (Includes foods for USDA's Food Distribution Program) good for blood pressure?
Yes. Beans, great northern, mature seeds, raw (Includes foods for USDA's Food Distribution Program) provides 1387mg of potassium per 100g (30% DV). Potassium helps lower blood pressure by counteracting sodium's effects and relaxing blood vessel walls. The sodium-to-potassium ratio is 99.1.
