Only if your intestinal flora is weak. I eat beans all the time, had some refrieds for lunch, no gas here. Try a probiotic or eat fermented foods regularly, cut back on sugar and get more fiber. Gut bacteria like a lotta fiber.
Improperly cooked beans can be difficult to digest. Likely something you are doing is not letting the good bacteria grow to a large enough colony. Too much meat and /or processed foods can encourage the wrong bacteria. Even doing all the right things, it can take a while to get a good colony going. Just keep it up and don't stop eating beans regularly.
beans beans are goood for your heart.... the more you eat the more you....... Gong, glad you have no gas problems there.....
LOL I get gas when I eat too much dairy. One of my guilty pleasures is to eat a pint of Hagen das coffee ice cream in one sitting
This convo about beans is kinda funny to me.... my son loves beans and he gets much gas afterwards. It's kinda funny but anyways, I was thinking about it and mentioned to my husband that I've never once noticed ever having gas, or any bloating or stomach cramps or any kinda stomach problem whatsoever from eating beans, no matter how many beans I eat. So, I couldn't figure out why beans apparently give some people such probs and other people, like me, none.... but I guess now I know why.
New research into gut bacteria is having some far reaching implications, even as far as mental health. Depression is even being linked to lack of proper gut flora. Those little beasties control our brains! http://www.npr.org/blogs/health/201...acteria-might-guide-the-workings-of-our-minds
Tea tree oil maybe? And foot baths. I wonder if acupuncture would help, too. I'm actually allergic to bleach (chlorine) so I never use it. When my landlord sold the house I live in, the new landlord decided to build an apartment out of the office space downstairs. His crew doused the downstairs in bleach and I was in Hell for nearly a week. Burned my eyes, nose, lungs .. it was fucking horrible. Yeah, use tea tree oil.
