hello everyone..I eat lots of meat and, beans almost everyday, are they fattening..I mean I eat em for lunch and, then have meat(whatever) with my veggies..and, sometimes rice..for supper..and, snack on friuts and, yogurt with cheese and, or ricecakes..chips or nuts aswell..I'm not much of a pasta eater although I do have it sometimes(corn pasta)..but, my question was if beans are fattening..??
Most things are fattening if you eat enuff of 'em However eating a 1/2 cup daily serving of beans per day is a wonderful source of protein, minerals, vitamins, carbs, etc. should give you many health benefits without adding fat.
More to the point, however, is just how much protein are you eating daily??

Well, they are certainly not the lowest calorie food around . . . but you have to look at everything in context. You absolutely need some foods that are not low in calories, so that cannot be the measure of everything.
As already stated, they have protein, etc., plus a recent report lists them as being relatively high in antioxidants (some varieties more than others). Your missing nothing from pasta . . . continue on with the beans!
