  In **[The Daily Telegraph](https://www.dailytelegraph.com.au/)** article "*[Cheat’s health makeover](https://www.ricardoriskalla.com/volumes/documents/sunday-telegraphy/cheats_health_makeover.pdf)*", Ricardo Riskalla, founder of Raw Fit Personal Training Australia, is highlighted for his dietary advice, particularly regarding beans and lentils.

He explains that their high folic acid content can protect against heart disease, reduce cholesterol, and provide antioxidant benefits comparable to tea, fruits, red wine, and cocoa. Ricardo’s insights are presented alongside a range of simple lifestyle changes, from juicing to whole-food choices, emphasising practical ways readers can enhance their health with minimal disruption to daily routines.

Eat a handful of beans or lentils twice a day.
