Edamame

Edamame beans, often known as vegetable-type soybeans, are whole, immature soybeans. They're green, unlike normal soybeans, which are generally light brown, tan, or beige in color. It's usually found in the frozen vegetable area of most big supermarkets in the United States. It's also available at most health food stores.

Isoflavones are chemicals found in edamame beans. Isoflavone-rich diets have been associated with a lower risk of a variety of diseases, including COPD. When compared to healthy control groups, those with COPD had considerably lower intakes of dietary isoflavones, according to a study of 618 Japanese adults. Furthermore, isoflavone intake was associated with enhanced lung function and reduced shortness of breath.
