Earlier in the week I got an email asking, “Why aren’t beans paleo?”
It’s a great question & one we’re diving into in today’s episode.
We’ll talk about macronutrients – are beans really a good source of protein? Do they have a lot of carbs?
We’ll talk about micronutrients – can your body actually absorb & utilize the iron & zinc you see listed on the nutrition label?
We’ll also talk about other components in beans and how they interact with our bodies at the cellular level.
If you’re a bean eater, this is a must-hear episode!

A transript would be good. Aren’t beans eaten by every “blue zone”? https://www.bluezones.com/2016/06/10-things-about-beans/
Thazza, I agree that a transcript would be good. I used to pay to produce them for every episode but when they weren’t being downloaded, of course I decided it wasn’t a good use of resources. I do not know if beans are eaten by “every blue zone”.
