Beans - super food you should be eating!

Beans - super food you should be eating!

If you're looking for new ways to add super foods into your diet, beans are the way to go!

Changing your diet is no easy task, and shopping for organic food is super expensive.

However, eating healthily should not dig too deep into your pockets, so that's why beans are the way to go.

These budget little beauties are readily available, easy to prepare, and taste good too. I’m going to go as far as to say that they are the ultimate superfood, and here’s why:

1. They're high in fibre, for good digestive health.
2. They're high in protein, keeping you fuller for longer, preventing you from snacking on the bad stuff, and aiding in weight loss.
3. They're rich in iron, to boost your immune system.
4. They're rich in calcium, for healthy bones.
5. They're low in fat, which is good for your waistline.
6. They're low in cholesterol, which is good for your heart.


Legumes make a great addition to salads, soups, pasta dishes, curries, taco fillings and even cakes!

Go on, give them a try!
