Actually no one knows if it is better to eat the beans or not. The ones who say
they are good, do not know, or recognize, the dangers of bean lectins. And do
we actually know that the lectin danger is worse than the total benefits of eating
beans?
As a paleodieter I stick to the knowledge that we are probably not evolved to
eat lots of beans. But I am aware that I *might* miss something good.
