Like Judy, I also do not suffer any of the above problems. However, I do maintain a healthy caloric level so my portions are limited. Perhaps a few tablespoons of black beans or an occasional slice of Trader Joe’s Whole Wheat Cranberry Hazelnut Bread. The secret to whole grain and legume consumption is moderation.
