I found this on the " world's healthiest foods " website -

http://www.whfoods.com/genpage.php?tname=george & dbid=72 :

" Black beans also contain small amounts (about 180 milligrams per cup)

of omega 3 fatty acids. This amount is about three times that

available from many other beans, including kidney beans. While the

amount of omega 3 fats in one cup of black beans is roughly equal to

the amount in one ounce of a cold water fish like halibut, it's still

a valuable addition to your meal plan since omega 3 fats are essential

to protecting our health. "

Is the bio-availability of these fatty acids in black beans equivalent

to animal sources such as fish? What other plant sources are there?
