Count Your Beans

Some of the healthiest foods come pack-

aged in small sizes. One cup of beans pro-

vides about a quarter of our daily intake

of protein, half of our required fiber and

several key energy-producing nutrients,

including magnesium, folate, potassium,

iron, thiamin and riboflavin. Red, kidney

and pinto beans have very high levels of

antioxidants compared to almost any

other food (yes, even the mighty blue-berry). Plus, beans have little to no fat and

no cholesterol.
