Did you know that eating too much red meat is bad for you? The opposite is also true, a lot of us now skip out on meat at mealtime, thinking they will lose weight.
What we really need is more beans in our diet. This protein-rich food may not seem appealing by itself, but it adds depth and texture to any recipe. It is the cheapest form of protein & fibre found at the Grocery store, only a buck or two, and that's not all it's good for! Beans are also high in fibre, which slows digestion, leaving you feeling full, longer! One last and important thing, beans are high in phytochemicals, easier put, antioxidants, which rid your body of the toxins you subject yourself to daily. ..
-(themoreyouknow): Beans will not give you gas if you chew your food thoroughly, which benefits you no matter what you eat, because it aids in the transport of nutrients throughout your body instead of loosing most of it through the waste removal process! It also keeps the food in your mouth longer, satisfying those hungry tastebuds!
My secret: Chic peas (garbanzo beans) in spaghetti. Add it once your sauce gets hot. (I also use ground turkey or chicken in replace of beef, due to the fact that it is easier to digest. Anyone with mild acid reflux or IBS can eat this spaghetti, try looking for low-acid tomatoes!)
