Eating just 1 ounce of beans per day has been shown to increase longevity. The ideal way to prepare them is to soak dry organic beans overnight, discard the soak water, then simmer until tender, usually 1-2 hours depending on how many you’re cooking and what kind. This process dramatically reduces gas and makes them easier to digest. Beans are also a great way to increase your digestible protein intake. What’s your favorite way to consume beans? In a salad, bean dip, soup? If you’re not already on our newsletter list, join us, where I give great health tips and recipes for things like vegan whole food bean dip!! https://ow.ly/BKUy50QWWiu#plantbaseddoctor #naturopathicmedicine #holistichealthcare #qrapractitioner #healthtips #naturopathicdoctor #rootcause #alternativewellness #quantumhealth #newhopehealth #optimalhealth #gethealthynow #radianthealth
