Thanks for the link Jack.
Not only aren't they beans but it may never have been able to promoted said health benefits.
Quoting the Wikipedia article, "Bile Beans was based on a vegetable source known only to
Aboriginal Australians... A court case initiated in Scotland in 1905 found that the Bile Bean Manufacturing Company's business was based on a fraud and conducted fraudulently,"
That is most unfortunate. I was hoping to lower my health care cost by informing my insurance carrier of my regular consumption of Bile Beans.

Guess I have to find another product...humm

maybe green tea, I've heard alot of good things about that...
