STORY AT-A-GLANCE

  • Green beans contain bioactive compounds that may support pet health, such as flavonoids, anthocyanins and polyphenols, as well as assorted vitamins and minerals
  • Green beans contain insoluble fiber, which may help bulk up your pet’s stool and promote healthy elimination
  • Green beans contain potassium, which may benefit pet health by supporting normal muscle contraction and relaxation, as well as proper nerve function
  • Most of the green beans sold today are sprayed with pesticides, so look for organic or spray-free varieties from sustainable sources whenever possible
