CherryBullets@lemmy.ca 4 weeks agoIgnore the legumes suggestion, it’s nasty af and makes most people’s stomachs bloated and inflammed (which gives gas). Eat fish, nuts, artisanal cheeses (very low lactose compared to other cheeses) or even just home made jerky. Good for the brain and no bloating unless you have some diagnosed gut diseases.

You never eat vegetables, do you? Much of the world lives off legumes. Having these issues with their digestion is caused by a poor gut microbiome from eating an extremely low-fiber diet.
I do eat vegetables, simply not legumes as they give me gas and bloating (and I’m not the only one it happens to, it’s so common, there’s a reason comedians joke about eating them and farting). Can we stop pretending legumes don’t cause gas and bloating? 😂 As if me pointing it out means I don’t eat veggies, gtfo here.
In my experience your body gets used to high fiber content. It’s only when you don’t eat legumes regularly that they cause issues, now that I’m eating them several times a day there’s no issues.

The average American eats a dearth of fibrous vegetables.
The article you quote literally says what I said, so I’m not sure what you’re getting at. Your quote even points out that beans are not the only fibrous vegetable that causes gas when you don’t regularly eat enough fiber (brocolli is another non-legume example). If you kept reading, you would see:
Fiber is particularly difficult to digest compared to some other foods. If you suddenly start eating 1 cup of beans per day, that’s a big increase, and it may take some time for your body to get used to your new fiber intake. But as you continue to consume legumes regularly, your gas levels will eventually return to normal.
Btw it’s beans AND legumes in general that do this
Yes, beans are legumes, that’s why we’ve been using the word legume this whole thread
My point still stands, you don’t HAVE to eat legumes to get veggies in (that’s what my main post was about, hello?). You are allowed to rave and drool about legumes and I’m allowed to point out that many people struggle with them way more than other veggies amd to not recommend them to the persom that asked for healthy foods with nutrients in them. What do you not understand about this? Do you really think only legumes are healthy? Broccoli is not nearly as bad as legumes for most people. No one makes jokes about broccoli making people fart and you don’t even have to wonder why… it’s because most don’t struggle with broccoli, duh.
A - not everyone has issues with legumes, don’t project your personal issues on everyone. B - just take a beano pill beforehand if you do have issues.
Many people fart with beans and legumes, it’s a minority that doesn’t and why should people take pills to eat food? If the food doesn’t mesh with you body, why force it down? I’ll never understand this. You can live a healthy life without legumes. This legume crusade is getting ridiculous 😂
You’re the only one on a crusade here, lol
Not really. I’m allowed to not recommend something that isn’t essential. You’re the ones responding to my different recommendations and trying to paint me as dumb or wrong in a crusade, by saying shitty accusations like “You must not eat veggies” or “It’s personal for you, so you’re projecting”, blah, blah, blah, so I’m having to quote sources to prove to you there’s a reason I don’t recommend legumes and that there’s other things the person I’m responding to can can try. You guys took offence to my different recommendations and ganged up on me like fucking children in a school yard for having different recommendations on food alternatives; that’s just the truth.

Ignore the healthy food, eat old milk and dried mystery meat.

Mystery meat? Are you ignorant? You can make jerky at home with freah meat yourself, that’s why I said homemade jerky. Gotta love vegans downvoting this out of ignorance. Artisanal cheeses are very good for you too. Legumes irritate many people.
