Title. I love beans but I have to be careful when I eat them because they can be dangerous.
In: Biology
Beans contain short chain carbohydrates called oligosaccharides that some members of your gut biome can digest but you can’t, and they make gas when they do. An inexpensive commercial product called Beano contains the enzyme that breaks them down without producing gas. I rule that I live by is; “No Beano, no chick peas.”
