This is good for me because Kidney Beans are high in:
Molybdenum – assists the body in detoxifying sulfites (a commonly used preservative)
Iron – carries oxygen in the body boosting immunity and energy
Folate- critical in the production of cells & maintenance of new cells
Fiber- We all know what that’s good for!
