About A quarter cup of brown beans
A quarter cup of brown beans serves as a nutrient-packed addition to your diet. These legumes, common in Latin American, African, and Southern U.S. cuisines, are praised for their earthy flavor and versatility in dishes ranging from stews to salads. Brown beans are rich in plant-based protein, fiber, and essential nutrients like potassium, magnesium, and iron, making them an excellent choice for promoting heart health and digestive well-being. They are also low in fat and free of cholesterol, making them a smart option for those managing weight or seeking heart-friendly foods. However, like most beans, they can be moderately high in carbohydrates, so portion control is key for those monitoring blood sugar levels. Their ability to keep you full and energized makes them a nutritious staple in many diets worldwide.
