Guest guest Posted April 12, 2008 Report Share Posted April 12, 2008 I was just cooking up a pot of black beans... Beans and rice (brown) together have complete proteins. Contrary to what was thought for so long, they do not need to be consumed at the same time (though really good red beans and rice is a dish to die for). All legumes are very high in proteins (soy beans are a legume). They are also 4 times higher in fiber than oatmeal! Fermented soy products are very different than non fermented and some of it has to do with the " pre digestion " of the proteins by the yeasts/bacteria/funguses. for those of you that can acquire the taste Natto is fantastic (also contains an incredible enzyme for cardiovascular occlusions called nattokinase). We here in America live in a fermentaphobia culture: everything is supposed to be sterile and dead. The person making our sandwich now has to wear plastic gloves so as not to contaminate us... (I for one want you to touch my food). Anything fermented is considered to be " spoiled " . We are literally killing ourselves with our paradigm. For those who wish to pursue the idea of living foods, check out Victoras Kulvinskas/ Dr. Ann Wigmore (bless her). " Survive and Thrive in The 21st Century " would be a good one.

Guest guest Posted April 13, 2008 Report Share Posted April 13, 2008 Dave, are black beans suppose to be soaked before they are cooked? Also, I love black beans and brown rice. But I have been staying away from both until I get my candida problem under control. Do you think that is a good idea? Thanks. > > I was just cooking up a pot of black beans...
