3Beans
Beans belong to the legume family. They are loaded with a lot of healthy carbohydrates, protein, minerals, vitamins, as well as fiber. However, most types of beans have alpha-galactosides, a form of sugar that can be hard for your gut to digest. Gas and bloating can be possible byproducts of digesting those components. The symptoms can be more common in people with irritable bowel syndrome. They would experience many other conditions, such as diarrhea, flatulence, and cramping. A good way to minimize the risk is to soak and sprout beans before eating. Also, black beans and pinto beans can be more easily digestible for the body. Consider replacing beans with quinoa, meat, or grains. [3]
