Packed with fiber, an excellent source of carbohydrates, iron rich - beans are a stellar food when it comes to dieting. A single serving has the power to tame your appetite for hours. A one-cup serving of 'Pinto Beans' has only about 240 calories! They are not only filling, they also contain nerve-soothing B vitamins, more than 2/3 of a day's folate requirements, a good dose of fiber and are iron-rich. There's more! A study has indicated that men who included pinto beans and other high-fiber foods in their diet obtained as much as a 60-point reduction in their total cholesterol. Some other varieties of beans to try are green beans, wax beans, soybeans, miso beans, winged beans, yard-long beans, kidney beans, navy beans, lima beans, pink beans, French beans, Great Northern beans, Broadbeans, black beans, garbanzo beans, jumping beans (huh?) - the list is almost er....endless! |
