“A HEALTHY LATINO DIET
Claudia says the traditional Latino diet is healthier in general than the typical Americanized diet. Here’s why:

(1) The Latino diet includes more fruits and natural juices;

(2) Foods in the Latino diet are high in fiber (beans, vegetable soups, mangos, bananas), phosphorous (liver, meats, chicken, lentils, black beans), and niacin (pork, fish, meats, chicken, enriched white rice); and the Latino diet uses more complex carbohydrates, such as potatoes, legumes, rice, yams, and, especially, corn tortillas.”
