Dr. Berry, I love rice and beans. I just don't eat them every day.

This is stupid. Look at all the blue zones and diet. There’s some form of rice, beans, pasta, and/or purple potatoes in there. Don’t listen to this guy. His face looks tired.
Yes, rice and beans are a highly nutritious and beneficial food combination, particularly for vegetarians and those seeking a complete protein source, as beans provide the essential amino acids that rice is low in, and vice versa. This pairing also offers fiber, antioxidants, and other micronutrients, contributing to feelings of fullness and better long-term blood sugar control.

Yeah but if you can add another healthy protein like chicken or healthy sausage it becomes a very nutrient dense meal. Have it with a salad and you’re doing even better

As a type 1 diabetic since 1970, who for DECADES was told to eat beans and whole grains and as little fat as possible… can we possibly force the management of the American Diabetes Association to eat nothing but rice and beans until they die?
No, of course we can’t, even though they DESERVE it.
This guy is a "carnivore diet" promoter. Dipshits like Jordan Peterson follow this shit. Tells me everything I need to know and more.
Fibre, protein in a carb source… It's great, this guy is an idiot
What is the issue with rice beans? Beans got a ton of fiber and protein, and you can easily get most of your vitamins with a diet consisting of rice and stewed beans
