i have never read or heard anything dangerous about beans...in fact i heard they are very good for blood sugar. juice a small amount and see how you feel...they shoud be fine.

I don't think Beans were meant to be juiced, but then again, maybe nothing was.
I'm getting 'primed' to go back to having Carrot Juice everyday. It's a real struggle dealing with the 25-lb. bags, and I had fallen out of the habit.......WY

Hi WY

I was unsure about juicing beans.
I had a feeling that there was a reason that i could not find them listed in juicing recipes.
I'm still not sure about the pink seed inside the bean, so i am juicing the tender pod part.

I was surprised how much juice I obtained from each bean.
I suppose that kidney bean plants become quite thirsty once the flower has set and the bean begins to grow, so this would make sense.
