Lima beans are a nutritious food and safe for most people when prepared correctly. However there are a few things to be aware of:
Some people may find that eating lima beans gives them gas and makes them feel bloated. This is because of their high fiber content. They also contain a particular type of fiber that, although helpful for gut health, is tough for your digestive system to break down. You can cut down on the gas by cooking them well. If you're using dried lima beans, it helps to soak them in room temperature water for at least 4 to 5 hours.
