Pros and Cons of eating Legume

According to the paleo diet one should not eat Legumes (beans, peas, lentils etc.) because they have high concentration of anti-nutrients like lectins and phytates which apparently reduces their nutritional value to very little. Research has however shown this to be untrue, it has been proven that the benifits of beans outweighs the anit-nutrient content.

Beans have lots of healthy nutrients that our bodies need.
B vitamins
Calcium
Potassium
Folate
Protein
Fiber
