A member asked:
Are legumes really bad for you? i eat chick peas, nuts, and beans on a regular basis. the web has a lot of conflicting information on the subject.

"There are no ...: ...Junk foods, only junk diets" - legumes are inadequate as sole food consumed; when eaten as part of a balanced diet, they work just fine. Overreliance on legumes is as bad as overreliance on any one food.
