The 'beanatarian' diet: Is it good or will you die?

Beans, beans, good for your heart. The more you eat, the more complete your nutritional profile will be. That’s how that one goes, right?

It’s seems that’s the way one man was taught the rhyme, after his girlfriend asked the internet for help due to his new ‘beanatarian’ dietary choice.

In a post to the subreddit on relationship advice, the woman said: ‘My boyfriend told me 3 weeks ago that he has decided to convert to a “beanatarian” diet. He told me he will from now only only eat different types of beans.

‘I thought he was joking at first but I have literally seen him eat nothing but beans and multivitamins every day for 3 weeks.

 ‘He insists that “Almost all nutrients can be derived from beans”, and he takes 2 multivitamins a day “just in case”.’

‘That’s why most human cultures, without knowing anything about food chemistry, have developed diets centred on complementary veggies that, together, provide all nine.’

Jo Ann warns that subsisting on one food along would initially affect your hair and nails, gradually affecting your lean body mass including your heart and lungs.

She says, ‘Eventually, your heart shrinks so much you die.’

It’s honestly not worth trying it – especially not for some self-serving experiment. Supermarkets have a number of offers on fruit and vegetables to supplement a diet that includes beans and other food groups.

That way you can enjoy the musical fruit every single day without the danger of death.
