    there is no "healthy" or "unhealthy" food.

    if you can make it fit in your day, then great!

    sodium isnt allllllll that important to track, unless youve been told to restrict by a medical professional.

    The ones you find in cans are probably full of sugar and additives. I prefer making my own from scratch.

    Half a cup a day should be workable into your diet.if a little unusual- why are you doing this?

    Well, the sugar and the carbs from the beans will likely put you close to your limit on both for the day, but if you're willing to plan around them because you love them so much, then why not?

    I have coffee with milk everyday, and just plan around it.

    You can buy them without added salt. Beans are awesome, most people eating an "american" style diet don't get enough fibre, frankly it is scary and beans are an awesome source of fibre.
