Page 2 of 3

Summertime is a perfect time to increase your intake of beans. Did you know that the new food guide pyramid recommends eating a minimum of three cups of beans each week? These nutrition powerhouses are simple and easy (keep a supply of canned beans in your pantry) and can be quickly made into a soup or tossed into a salad. Any way you eat them, beans add flavor and interest to meals – not to mention protein, fiber, folic acid, and iron.

Nutrition-wise, beans lower cholesterol levels and reduce heart disease risk. They promote a feeling of fullness that helps you eat less and control calorie intake. They are naturally low in fat and sodium. Rinsing canned beans helps to decrease their sodium content.

Tips to increase bean intake:

• Add beans to salads. Jazz up the traditional 3-bean salad by adding black beans and baby lima beans, making it a 5-bean salad. Green peas, chickpeas, and kidney beans are salad bar favorites.
• Eat hummus, a Middle Eastern garbanzo bean spread that’s great with pita bread, crackers and raw vegetables.
• Add black beans to your favorite salsa recipe.
• Snack on bean dips with baked tortilla chips.
• Eat bean soups at home and in restaurants.

	wow gold jackier Measuring the levels of a hormone produced by the placenta during pregnancy might predict whether a woman is likely to develop postpartum depression, a new study suggests.Approximately 13 percent of women will experience postpartum depression, a condition that holds significant consequences not only for women but for their infants and families as well, experts say. Once a woman has had postpartum depression, she is more likely to have future bouts of depression, and that puts infants and children at risk for cognitive, behavioral and social problems."If we know early on that a woman is at high risk to develop postpartum depression, world of warcraft gold wow power level cheap wow gold wow power leveling wow powerleveling buy wow gold EverQuest 2 gold eq2 plat cheap ffxi gil ffxi gil final fantasy gilthen we can implement interventions before symptoms actually occur," said lead researcher Ilona S.
