My brother, we just dey exchange ideas. No big deal. Your referrence link was about red beans, not our popular blackeye pea or 'beans'. I know there are at least 100 species of beans, both poisnous and edible. Personally, I have never eaten red beans, but I know people who have. My grand-mother would tell us about some type of beans they were forced to eat as kids because of hunger, "we soaked it for 4 days, cooked it for 24 hours, and had the dog taste it before we did" My discussion is focused on blackeye pea, because some species of beans could kill you. Another point with your ref. was that it was an experiment in mice- now, you know that man and mice don't share similar diet, colonic anatomy, or even social influence of excessive gas production-farting. Naijaking thank you very much. Nothing de happen as you said. I have never disputed the nutritional value of beans. have not also disputed that gas production from bacterial break down beans is not normal, in fact I did say it is not disputable. If you take a closer look at the first link I posted, you will see that it said that red beans has the greatest amount of lecitin (phytoaglutinin) and even gave you the percentage of lecithin in white beans(black eyed pea) which you are talking about. They all contain this guy. Although we all know that when we soak beans or boil it for a while and discard the water, the extent of diarrhoea reduces, look the link from FDA as was posted above http://www.fns.usda.gov/fdd/facts/hhpfacts/FS-PeasBlack-eyedDry.pdfIn all the methods of preparation, they advised that you soak or boil for a while a remove the. I do not think it is the fiber that is meant to be removed with the water. I guess it is the chemical that causes the wahala. How you see ma point?  From a surgical point of view, any agent that induces colonic diarheae also activates the lymphocytes lining the colons, not just with beans. Diarheae or not, the most important point is moderation. There are different types of fiber-soluble and insoluble, but they produce same effect- makes you go. Have you ever wondered why beans is always on the menu of institutionalized settings- prisons, hospitals, boarding schools? Despite the bad name, it's the only cheaply available food that has been found to ward off malnutrition. Many people don't know, I too didn't know when I was in boarding house at Nike Boys, we thought that Wednesday and Saturday beans was a punishment sent directly from hell. |

@Poster you talk of the stooling, you forget the atomic bombs that blows out free willingly 24hours afterwards. Just add plenty of onions, usually helps.  |

Very interesting topic, from xperience anyway, i can say eating raw beans stored in d freezer before cooking is beta than d one nt. Then, beans are legumes, upon ingestion, they are broken by bacteria which we all hv in our intestines, perfectly normal. product is ammonia gas among other products. d gas causes your MESS, stimulates increased bowel movement, your POO-POO, some may hav abdominal cramps,

What in Gods earth is stooling and messing, would you guys possibly be talking about taking a shit, leaving a dump, doing #2, squeezing one off, and for the messing, if you mean fart, just say it 'fart", or passing gas, or flatulance, or ripping one, or blowing a fart, or letting it rip, or flying a fart,. Now thats how we say it here in the states. @datnigadaz…, Who are the you that say flatulence? The 2nd class of the 2nd class citizens or who? If people call it fart in the states ( and which states are you talking about?, Cross River, Benue or Bauchi states?) well we in Nigeria call it mess!! Beans is synonymous with mess, dirty mess i mean thats why i will never eat beans and i don't mess beleive me. Unless good mess that can serve as perfume in some quaters. @ presido 1 presido1 Maybe you should check your facts. People who eat eggs and meat have smellier mess than peole who eat beans. What makes your mess (farts) stink is the small amounts of hydrogen sulfide gas and mercaptans inside the mixture coming out from your body. These compounds contain sulfur. Nitrogen-rich compounds also add to the stench of your mess. The more sulfur-rich your diet is the more sulfides and mercaptans will be produced by the bacteria in your intestines, and the more mercaptans the more smelly will be your mess. Foods such as cauliflower,eggs and meat are the worst for producing smelly "messing" whereas when you eat BEANS, you produce alot of air that is not as smelly as that of meat and eggs. |

There's something to be said about methods of preparation and the sysmptoms.
Eating moi-moi, and akara which are made from beans don't seem to cause so much stooling and excessive gas.
Maybe eating beans in this form causes us to eat less and avoid the outer-coating--- which maybe contributing to fiber.
Can't wait to hear from a registered nutritionist or dietician.

Hey y'all I think the beans issue is really about your digestive system  . I personally don't have any issues with beans, no matter how well or badly cooked it may be. Back in secondary school hostel, we were fed beans 7 days a week in varying mixtures and we were forced to like it or leave it. For those who have a problem with beans, I believe it's just best to avoid it. In fact, during my NYSC camp, I discovered that it was only on days when beans was served that plenty of food was left-over. We (the beans likers ) were usually told to serve ourselves on such days so as to avoid wastage. Trust me I usually ate my fill and much more! Really, one man's meat is another man's poison - simple as that! Cheers |

LOL. I agree that beans is extra hard work for some people's digestive sysytem beacsue i realize that it's not everybody that stools after eating beans. What i mean is that some bowels move on a normal level and fart (very normal) but a sizeable amount of people have running stomach (diarrhoea) after beans. I also concur to cooking method making a difference, no matter what some people say. i grew up hating beans even though my mum would insist and i wouldnt have a choice but to eat but my system's intolerance grew by the day. By the time i was in Secondary school, i couldn't eat beans without extreme diarrhoea so i stopped eating it. However, rescue came after my NYSC, while i was undergoing my 2nd degree. My roommate used to wonder why i never liked beans but i was a bit adventurous and tried eating beans she cooked about twice and i didn't stool. I was surprisesd and thought it was coincidence. Somehow, i later discovered that she drains the water from the beans after it has boiled for like 30-40 mins, then pour fresh water with lots of onion. And that's how i've been cooking beans since. No more shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii**ing. Peace!!! . Now, it just moves my bowels normally. |

No more shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii**ing. Peace!!! . Now, it just moves my bowels normally. The phytohaemaglutinin in beans is activated in beans that is not well cooked. So at the half-done level 30-40 minutes, the most of it might be in solution and that is removed when the water is drained. It si known that when the beans is well done without draining, the amount of the lectin could be reduced from 20, 000 hau to 200 hau(hau is the unit of measurement). This is understandable since lectin is a glycoprotein and may be denatured by by heat. So if proper cooking could reduce the concentration 1000fold, when most of the compound is removed in the drained water, the remaining can possible be takien care of by proper cooking. That is what I think. |

Why be say our things for this country no dey go right, We wan eat protenious food wey go belle full us, after we eat am na mess we go dey mess. I don tire for beans because of the negative effect. If i wan go work interview i no need eat beans because i go loose the job because the room wey them de conduct the interview go dey smell mess. Beans mess de smell pass other food mess. The mess be like say na spoilt food we dey eat. If i invite babe come my end i no need to eat beans before she come my house because i go loose her consent and her likeness for me, Make Scientist find solution of avoiding mess and stool when we eat beans. The shit wey dey come out after eating beans dey smell pass gutter.
