Beans
Beans are an exellent
addition to the diet. They are
one of nature’s neat perfect
food, containing an abundance
of B-vitamins and iron.
They are low in calories, sodium,
and fat, containing calcium,
zinc, potassium, magnesium,
and copper. A
wealthy supply of most protein-
building amino acids,
beans also contain more fiber
per serving than oat bran. A
report published in the
American Journal of Clinical
Nutrition states that “beans
significantly lower cholesterol
levels even in high-fat
diets.”
