The Mediterrean Diet, or one high in fruit, vegetables, olive oil, whole grains, seafood, and legumes, is the healthiest diet according to experts. Those who follow the diet also rarely consume sugar or red meat, though they do usually enjoy moderate amounts of red wine and drink plenty of water. The diet’s bean content has shown to be especially helpful not only in terms of overall health and vitality, but weight loss.

A Longevity Diet “Cornerstone”
Those who live in “Blue Zones” such as Ikaria, Greece; the Barbagia region of Sardinia, Italy; Okinawa, Japan; and the Nicoya Peninsula of Costa Rica consume beans regularly. The women in these regions have some of the longest lifespans in the world.
“Beans reign supreme in Blue Zones and are the cornerstone of every longevity diet in the world: black beans in Nicoya; lentils, garbanzo, and white beans in the Mediterranean; and soybeans in Okinawa,” says Dan Buettner, a longevity researcher, National Geographic Fellow, and author of The Blue Zones: Lessons for Living Longer from the People Who’ve Lived the Longest. “Most centenarians eat at least four times as many beans as Americans do on average—at least a half cup per day. And so should you. Why? Beans are packed with more nutrients per gram than any other food on Earth.”
A Complex Carb That’s Rich in Fiber & Protein
Beans might be 77% carbohydrates, but they’re complex carbs high in protein and fiber. They subsequently keep you feeling full instead of making your blood sugar spike and crash.
“They’ll likely push less healthy foods out of your diet,” says Buettner of eating beans.
According to U.S. Dietary Guidelines, people should consume a half-cup of beans per day, such as lentils, black beans, pinto beans, chickpeas, and Great Northern Beans.
