Studies have shown that black beans are possibly high in molybdenum, a rare mineral not found frequently in foods. Molybdenum is important for a number of reasons, primarily because it can break down and detoxify sulfites. Sulfites are acidic compounds found in wines, dried fruits, and some vegetables, and many people are very sensitive to their effects, which include a headache and disorientation. The molybdenum found in black beans counteracts these effects, neutralizing the negative effects so people can enjoy those foods again. Molybdenum also helps in cell energy production and the development of the nervous system. 

Also, molybdenum has been shown to reduce impotence and erectile dysfunction in older men when regularly consumed. This rare vitamin has regularly been linked to increased energy and interest in sexual activity in older men

They are small in size and have a shiny skin making them recognisable amongst other varieties of beans.
