The general belief is beans are filled with proteins. A friend told me not to load up on them as they are not all protein. There is enough carbs in there to get one fat. I couldn't wait to get online and find out the truth. Yes, beans indeed have carbs but they are the complex carbs versus carbs we get from processed breads or rice.
Here is the nutrition summary. Beans are rich in protein and dietary fiber, low in fat, calories and sodium, and completely cholesterol-free. As little as a half-cup of beans added to the daily diet can be very helpful in reaching important nutrition goals.
Why would you not sacrifice regular carbs for beans? In addition to all the nutrition the full feeling keeps one satisfied for hours.
