He covers allllll the goods!
π« Beans and lentils β the health benefits, how to prepare them, and why legumes are quite possibly the single most important food group you can add to your diet.
π° Nuts β he wraps up with a deep dive into nuts and why they deserve a permanent spot in your daily eating as well.
The stat that stopped me cold π€― Eating just ONE cup of beans, chickpeas, or lentils every single day for three months could slow your resting heart rate as much as spending 250 HOURS on a treadmill. Two hundred and fifty hours. On a treadmill. Replaced by a cup of lentils. ππΏ
