Thrilled to join Dr Neil D. Parikh (@GastroNDP) on his podcast under Food as Medicine series to dive into the nutritional power of beans! 🫘 podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the… 🌱 What’s What: Legumes = beans + peas + pulses; pulses are the dried seeds—and beans are the protein-&-fiber MVPs! 💪 Protein Power: Just ½ cup cooked delivers ~7–9 g of plant protein—your easy meat alternative. 🌾 Fiber Fuel: 5–9 g fiber per ½ cup helps you stay full, supports gut health & tames inflammation. Huge thanks to Neil D. Parikh for this exciting opportunity—and to all of you for tuning in! @UConnIM @UConnGI
