Beans are very very very advanced for a damaged gut. Nut butter would be a much better option. Almond or pecan to start. Stay away from peanut at this point.

You would need to soak the beans, rinse them, cook them in fresh water, rinse them again, dry them, and then grind them into bean flour. No commercial bean flour is legal because the haven't been soaked and cooked. You'd do better, in my opinion, with a nut butter. Peanut butter, being a legume, like beans, can be hard to start with. Almond butter (WHITE almond butter, without the skins ground in) or pecan butter are very good. — Marilyn New Orleans, Louisiana, USA Undiagnosed IBS since 1976, SCD since 2001 Darn Good SCD Cook No Human Children Shadow & Sunny Longhair Dachshund Babette the Foundling Beagle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is hat bad?Don't you eat vegetables and fruits? They have insoluble fiber, although much less if you peel them and cook them to death =) Peace =)Alyssa 16 yo UC April 2008, dx Sept 2008SCD June 2009 (restarted)Azathioprine 50 mg 1x per dayPrednisone 30 mg 1x per day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted April 19, 2010 Report Share Posted April 19, 2010 Here is a slightly more informative, though not that great fiber chart. It's lists the actual grams per serving, so you can get a better idea of foods comparitive value etc. huhs.harvard.edu/assets/File/OurServices/Service_Nutrition_Fiber.pdfmight make you feel a little less worried Also, for reintegrating more insoluble fiber foods, I would mess with fruit way before beans, and prob nuts too, although GAPS seems to introduce nuts pretty early compared with fruits, compared with SCD.Applesauce would be where I would start Best, I'm not avoiding for any reason other than I'm getting scared to try foods.
