in Being Raw

Hello

I am just learning about raw foods. I have noticed that the only beans seem to be mung beans, garbonzo beans (chick peas) and lentils.

What about kidney beans? lima beans? canoli beans? soy beans? Are they not safe? Or do they just not taste good?

I am soaking a handful of 15 beans soup beans to see what will sprout and what won’t and how each tastes. Should I not experiment this way?

And also, where do I find these sprouting beans? Does Whole Foods carry them?

Thank you so much,

    Thank you both so much. Michele the article was especially useful about kidney beans being toxic raw. I will miss them terribly! They may be one once in a while cheat for me.

    Also David, thank you for the Whole Foods tip, I did indeed find chickpeas and mung beans there dried.

    I am on day 3 so far and feeling so much better, breathing better is the main thing and I am always so surprised how I get through the day quite happily going raw!
