The basic ingredients in traditional refried beans are pinto or black beans, salt, spices, and lard or bacon fat. It's the salt and animal fat that can make the dish unhealthy. Traditional refried beans tend to be made with a large amount of lard or oil so they aren't always the healthiest choices even though beans on their own are normally healthy. This version made with heart-healthy olive oil is a much better option with lots of fiber and plant-based protein.
