Bean Reactions...Recipes Jennifer Jones

The bean is actually a pod or seed which we choose to eat as food. It is a relatively low-cost source of protein, and can be used as a substitute for meat. Beans are also a good source of vitamins, antioxidants and minerals. Research indicates that beans help prevent fatty livers, assist with diabetes and glucose metabolism. They also help fill up and control the appetite. Beans come in different forms: as chickpea, lentil, soybean, kidney bean, pinto bean, navy bean, and more.
