Exactly.

they taste nice but make me bloated if I eat a lot, which you need to if you want then to be a significant source of protein

PHYTOESTROGEN AND PAJEET TIER BODY.

Post body

I wouldn’t care about that estrogen, look how fucking delicious that bowl of lentils looks, fuck me

Someone posted yesterday that phyto is actually good, because it's less potent but at the same time reduces natural est production, which means less est overall. I have no clue if it's true, but i'm interested in the topic

Pros
>cheap
Cons
>not actually digestible

They're good for you. Cheap, 30% protein, lots of micronutrients, polyphenols, and so on. They're also slow-digesting and have a lot of fiber. IIRC they also lower cholesterol.

There's basically no downside if you have no problem digesting them.

>reduces natural est production
I don't believe that is accurate.
From what I recall is that the e2 that doesn't bind will continue to circulate the system unless it is methylated and expelled. So unless you're clearing the estrogen from your body it will continue to increase

Estrogen is anabolic though, so that would be a bad thing.

if you soak beans properly and then cook them properly it removes 99.99% of the "bad" shit in them.

if you eat dry kidney beans on the other hand you're going to literally die.

imagine believing this

This.
If you have the patience, sprout them, then cook.
Get rid of the water after 1st boil then boil again. Dispose the water after cooked.
If you still get bloated you'll have to gradually add them to your day starting with the least amount you can digest - they contain so much fiber which is great but you add too much too fast for protein and your gut wont handle it.

What's the deal with the first boil water? And that water when they are ready is pretty tasty and thick, should I discard it nevertheless??

Imagine going through all this just to eat some fucking legumes. I used to do that when I ate beans everyday, it fucking sucks.
Eat rice instead of legumes, grasses are way less toxic and rice is probably the least damaging seed out there, if it's white rice, brown rice is shit and should not be eaten.

same. someone post a lentil stew recipe like that

>What's the deal with the first boil water?
contains the stuff that can give you wind. if you're going to go to the bother to change the water, just change it after its been boiling for a few minutes, once the scum has stopped appearing if you are removing it.
once they are cooked and have started to fall apart, rinsing or changing the water is wasting some of the goodness.
but i wouldn't change the water, just fart it out if you're body isn't use to the legumness.

Thanks breh.
Other question, I read somewhere that soaking in acid water eliminates a great deal of antinutrients, does discarding the first water also removes antinutrients or just the ungodly farting?

Pros:
Fiber
Good carbs
Micros
Protein
Affordable
Available
Doesn't require refrigeration raw
Long shelf life
Fart fuel

Cons:
Fart fuel

Pro :
> Protein
> Cheap as hell
> Fibrous (filling)

Cons
> Carbs
> Can't eat that many at once (I always look for alt-proton sources, and I thought I hit the jackpot, but trying to meet my macros left me shitting what looked like cobbed corn (just a mass of fucking lentils)).

the ones from onions etc are less powerful to compared to your own and only bind to certain receptors. One of he main places onions phyto's will bind is in breast tissue. Where it will out compete your own and be a binding site inhibitor.

Pros
>tasty
Cons
>epic time rift shattering farts
