I have heard that too, that some people don’t do well with peppers. It could be the fiber (people who otherwise get very little fiber), or the fact that bell peppers also contain oligosaccharides. Some people might also be sensitive to bell peppers (you can be sensitive to almost anything) which might lead to bloating, although that would probably be rare.

Yes, beans are definitely have some health benefits and can be part of a healthy diet! They contain lots of fiber, valuable minerals and vitamins and lots of antioxidants (the darker the bean the more antioxidants). Green beans are very healthy as well. In nutrition green beans are looked at as a vegetable and beans/legumes are counted as a “meat”. So while they are definitely related (green beans are the unripe fruit of the bean plant, while the “bean” is the large seed of the bean plant.) they are different nutritionally. Green beans who count as a vegetable are lower in calories (lower in protein and carbs) and contain lots of different vitamins and minerals. Both can be part of a healthy diet.

Haha, I always slept with my window open in Switzerland (for other reasons…) and I hate how I can’t open the windows here sometimes because of the AC.

Great! Thanks for confirming that there are indeed people who have no problems with beans!

Thanks for answering my question!
