How eggs and beans keep you fuller for longer
Why protein is so good for you
Protein-rich foods like eggs, cheese, beans, lean meats, legumes, and dark leafy greens, help to build and maintain the bones, muscles, and cells in our bodies.
As women, it is recommended that we ingest two servings of protein daily that equals a total of around 141 grams.
Filling eggs and beans
Protein is also known to help keep us fuller for longer, as opposed to many foods which contain refined carbs that break down quickly in the body.
Eggs are filling, and beans are high in fibre and slow to digest. Both are excellent sources of protein which can be prepared in a number of ways.
Healthy ways to enjoy eggs and beans
- Eggs: scrambled, poached, boiled, or served as omelettes loaded with veggies.
- Beans: used in salads, pureed into spreads or dips, or mixed into stews and soups.
