mythil Posted November 22, 2012 Share Posted November 22, 2012 Hi all, I've been thinking of trying a raw food plan like on the main website as I've got a few lb's of bodyfat still hanging around that just isn't going away on my current diet. One question I have, I've seen some plans that use beans, typical things like soy beans and the like.. What do you do about them as you HAVE to cook them, even if they come pre cooked out of a can as they are toxic if you don't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mythil Posted November 22, 2012 Author Share Posted November 22, 2012 sprouted beans brah Good luck getting them in the UK, or at least where I live. You can get the typical "bean sprouts" which are mungbeans I believe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carrot topless Posted November 22, 2012 Share Posted November 22, 2012 Mung beans are kew. I know for a fact that waitrose stocks sprouted beans, but it isnt hard to sprout your own. Google it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Broccoli Monster Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 I'm pretty sure beans can't be included in a raw food diet. Like you said, you have to cook them for them to be edible. Red kidney beans will make you sick if you don't cook them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kon Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 I'm pretty sure you can sprout any dried bean. You have to put them in a jar and soak them for a certain time and then rinse them periodically. Check online for methods on doing it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mufflon Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 Bean sprouts can be eaten raw but there are some exceptions, e. g. soy and red kidney beans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
