Sprouts and beans are hard to digest in the stomach and small intestine because our bodies cannot produce the enzymes needed to break down some of the chemical components they contain. These partially-digested foodstuffs then make their way into the colon where they can fuel a large-bowel bacterial banquet, with predictable effects.

Many people claim to have issues with beans. Because they are healthy (high in proteins, fibers, vitamins and minerals) I try to give some answers as to why this happens and some things to consider when trying them or when one runs into problems.

Remember, eating whole foods, plant-based is a lifestyle, not an 8-week diet. Change your mindset to think long term asherance for optimum health. By eating plants, your body will thank you, the earth will thank you and the animals will thank you.
