  I eat 3 cups of cooked bean salad every day (5 days a week).  I also take no fat of any type.  This helped to bring down my LDL from 130 mg/dl to 80 mg/dL.   My bean salad consists of 6 to 8 bean/pluses.  Yes, I am loosing weight like crazy and my BMI right now is close to 20.

  I look forward to new, yet ancient wisdom of eating beans. I inherited my father's love of beans, he told me "I never met a bean I did not like",. I am going to explore adding beans to my rustic breads. I recently came across an interesting recipe using red lentils. You soak one cup of red lentils in two cups of water for about four hours, then blend them into a pancake like batter and cook it, also like a pancake in a nonstick or well seasoned pan, cook both sides, now you have a delicious lentil flatbread. So good!

  My Father grew up in Italy as a farmer. &nbsp;Here in the United States in his hospital bed he accurately stated:<br>“ First comes the food and then the medicine!”

  We eat beans almost every day. Instant pot makes it super easy.

  My dad is 99 years old and healthy. He has eaten beans every day for many years. I’m doing the same.

  I make a black beans protein shake, that is heaven in a glass. 1 can of black beans, cocoa powder, 3 dates, tb. Of peanut butter, vanilla, cinnamon and soy milk. You will never believe that there’s beans in there. Pure chocolate for chocolate lovers. My wife makes brownies out of black beans. She makes lentils pancakes for breakfast. If I continue, I’ll never finish. I love your talk, thanks.

  My husband has had digestive issues as long as I’ve know him (50+ years). 3 months ago I convinced him to eat 1/2 cup of beans with breakfast every morning. I don’t have to remind him anymore; he’s hasn’t had problems with his digestion since so he’s not tempted to skip. Now to add another 1/2 cup to lunch..

  I am thrilled the algorithm placed this into my feed. I recently started eating beans three times a day. Red lentils for breakfast, sprouted lentil salad for lunch, and one of my beloved bean recipes for dinner. &nbsp;I am a bean freak and have never met a bean I did not like. I look forward to following this channel.

  As I listen to this interview, I am literally eating a bowl of navy beans. <br>I am serious about my health game. I’m 68. I just underwent open heart surgery last July, I’m a 24 year survivor of the Whipple procedure. <br>I love your channel. Beans are on the front line of my defense. Please keep adding content. Thank you so much for targeting this topic.
