Background : Research on legumes is not much found. One example of beans
that we often found on daily basis is green beans. Consuming green beans can
fulfil the protein needs of our body. The protein contained in green beans can
lower the levels of triglycerides in blood. This triglyceride levels decrease is
because green bean protein can induct adiponectin and decrease the synthesis of
triglycerides through insulin.
Method : This research is pre-experimental with a comparison of Sample Static
group comparasion used by students of the Faculty of Health Sciences UKMC
Palembang. Samples were taken using Sampling Technique to the group of 30
random people. The tools used are Byosystem A-15 with Biochemistry Control
Serum Control Material Lv.1 and Lv.2 performed for 21 consecutive days. Before
taking blood, respondents were first asked to fast for 12 hours, and then the blood
was taken for sample. After blood taking, the respondents consumed green bean
porridge. After consuming green bean porridge, respondents were expected to not
eat for 2 hours and don?t do physical activity for blood collecting after treatment.
Statistic analyzing is done using paired test.
Result : It is obtained that average blood triglyceride levels before consuming
green bean porridge is 74.63 mg/dL and after consuming green bean porridge is
72.78 mg/dL. These results stated that there was no significant difference in the
examination of triglyceride levels before and after consuming green bean porridge
with a value of p=0.428 (p>0.05).
Conclusion: It is concluded based on this study that there is no significant
difference of triglyceride levels on body because consuming green bean porridge
does not lower the levels of triglyceride
