Can the mighty bean change the way we feel? Plant biologist Nadia Radzman, of Cambridge University, has found evidence showing the Fava bean contains chemicals linked to lasting improvements in the moods and emotions of those consuming them. So in the final episode of our Bang in Some Beans podcast series, presenter Melissa Hemsley quizzes a group of women about the impact soy beans have influenced their hormonal health with nutritional therapist and author of The Natural Menopause Method, Karen Newby.

And as they report back on a month of upping their bean intake, food writer, Emiko Davies offers them a miso and walnut paste from her latest book, The Japanese Pantry to test. You can find the recipe for Emiko's Walnut Miso here, the recipe for Karen's White Bean Salad with Tahini Dressing here and more delicious bean recipes here.
