The former dean of the Heart Institute identified the benefits of thermos for the body in the following points:
1- Promoting heart health
Lupine plays a major role in promoting cardiovascular health, as it helps to lower harmful cholesterol in the blood, thanks to its good polyphenol and zeaxanthin content.
Lupine also contains arginine, an amino acid that in turn contributes to lowering blood pressure.
2- Weight loss
Lupine helps to lose excess weight, due to its low calories, in addition to the ability of its fibers to keep the stomach full for long hours.

Lupine is of great importance to the health of the digestive system, because its fiber helps to improve bowel movement and facilitate digestion and excretion, but it should be eaten in moderation, because excessive consumption causes bloating.
