NATIONAL EAT YOUR BEANS DAY

As they were seven millennia ago, today, beans are a significant source of protein. If you're looking for complex carbohydrates, folate, fiber, and iron, eat some beans. They are excellent sources for each of those. A very healthy choice for any meal or snack, they are also an excellent source of fiber, low in fat and high in complex carbohydrates, folate, and iron.
