I’ve read that the digestive enzymes the body needs to digest legumes increase if a person eats legumes regularly, so it’s a good idea to include them often and starting with small doses, and the ones a person likes best.
Say hummous, or something familiar.
I think I’ve read about the baking soda trick, but haven’t tried it.
I love beans, especially black beans; they don’t love me :-(
I’ve never had a problem with chickpeas or lentils...
