Pharmacology

White Kidney Bean Extract, also called Phaseolus Vulgaris extract, comes from the white kidney bean, a legume native to Central America and South America. It's sold as a weight-loss supplement that blocks the absorption of carbohydrates. The extract stops the action of alpha-amylase, the enzyme the body uses to break down carbohydrates. When this enzyme is stopped, the starch in food is not broken down or absorbed.
