A hundred-year-old Rui is not uncommon among the five "blue zones" around the world. Although these regions span the United States, Europe and Asia, residents have similar lifestyles and dietary habits. Beans are the secrets in their diet, and their large amount of protein and rich nutrients are all secrets that prolong life and improve health.

CNN reports, the five blue areas are Loma Linda, California, Ikaria, Japan, Nicoya, Costa Rica, and Sardinia, Italy. Dan Buettner, founder of Blue Zones, the Blue Zones, said that horn beans and cherry beans are beans that residents of Satiniana eat every day. Butner pointed out that each bean has different nutrients, so it is best to eat more beans. For example, red beans contain more fiber, green beans contain leaves, black and dark waist beans are rich in drilled, and horn beans contain a lot of oyster.

Butner said that soybeans are also rich in plant protein, richer in nutrients and less hotter than animal protein, and by combining soybeans with full grain, you can eat all amino acids that form a complete protein, which is similar to meat amino acids. He also said that only 5% to 10% of Americans have enough fibers, which can bring healthy kidney microorganisms, strengthen immune function, and reduce inflammation. In 2001, a study found that eating beans four times a week can reduce the incidence of heart disease by 22%.

In Nicoya, Costa Rica, the Gallo Pinto that people often eat is cooked with black beans or red beans. Butner pointed out that in addition to beans, using overnight meals is also one of the reasons for health. "It's very interesting. Rice will produce resistant powder after overnight, and the body absorbs it slowly, so blood sugar will not be fast and high." Although purple sweet potatoes are considered a long-lasting staple food for Osmanthus, Butner said that the second important food is soy. "Okinawa usually has tofu at every meal, just like their bread: miso soup has a lot of tofu cubes in the morning."

In addition to health, Butner pointed out that another benefit of beans is the cheap price. However, people often respect the situation of farting after eating beans. Butner suggests that from few to many spoons a day, gradually increase from two weeks to one cup a day. At a time, the good bacteria and microorganisms in the heart have grown, so eating beans will be completely depleted.
