Antinutritional Factors in Faba Beans

  • Chapter
Faba Bean Improvement

Part of the book series: World Crops: Production, Utilization, and Description ((WCPU,volume 6))

Abstract

Raw faba bean seeds contain a number of biologically active factors that produce physiological damage when eaten in large quantities over a long period (29) (22) (23). These “antinutritional factors” include protease inhibitors, tannins, lectins and flatus producing factors.
