Green Beans The major health benefit of common beans is their ability to lower cholesterol due to their rich source of fiber. Studies have shown that the high fiber contained in beans prevents blood sugar levels form rising too rapidly after a meal. This makes beans an especially good choice for individuals with diabetes, insulin resistance, or hypoglycemia.
Mushrooms Studies have shown that Shiitake and Maitake mushrooms also have extensive health benefits. As a result they have become increasingly available. They provide an excellent source of selenium, and polysaccharides. They also provide an excellent source of iron and are good sources of fiber, protein, and vitamin C. Good friends are hard to find, harder to leave, and impossible to forget. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ Access the Recipes And More list archives at: http://www.mail-archive.com/recipesandmore%40googlegroups.com/ Visit the group home page at: http://groups.google.com/group/RecipesAndMore -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
