Legumes
Since legumes come from plants, the latter, such as beans, lentils, and peas, are an excellent source of protein without containing a lot of unhealthy fat. One study found that people who eat pulses at least four times a week have a 22% lower risk of having heart disease compared to people who eat pulses less than once a week. In addition, legumes can help control blood sugar in people with diabetes. Note that among legumes, black beans have a high level of magnesium, which makes them an ally of choice against the risk of cardiovascular disease.
