You need to have the right enzymes and bacteria to digest them. Not all
people do. Ditto for milk, meat, fruit and pretty much everything else. I have
to say though, that since I've been working out "having a happy gut", beans
are fine now. The non-bean-tolerant folks I know seem to do ok with them
by taking beano.
Also beans are not all alike. Peruanos are way easier to digest ... and to cook ...
than the usual Pintos. If you soak them for a day or two, they work better
also. Lentils and garbanzos are even easier.
Beans are one of those few things I tend to crave. Usually on a salad (along
with roasted nuts: something that is problematic for a lot of people) or as
hummous.

Beans give me terrible cramps. When I went on the paleo diet, I was so happy to stop eating beans. YUK !!!!!
