Let’s say someone was to grow up with some sort of slow cooker recipe including beans as a weekly staple. What kind of negative health impacts would that person expect from said beans. Asking for a friend or course.
So, it depends on the kind of bean. Canned beans, don’t worry about it, they’re pre cooked. Dried beans, best to get them to a boil for 30 minutes.
Most beans would just make you extra gassy if under cooked, as the cooking can break down some of the compounds that would otherwise be broken down by gas producing bacteria.
Kidney beans will make you nauseous and vomit if they’re not brought up to boiling and held there for about 30 minutes. Getting them to that temperature and holding them there breaks down certain compounds. Some other beans tend to have the same compound but not to the same extreme levels as kidney beans
From what I can tell, pinto beans seem to be fine, but at least with other varieties, it’s recommended to fast boil them for ten minutes before putting them in a crock pot
Don’t cook raw beans in a slow cooker. It doesn’t get hot enough.
Pressure cooker is the real deal when it comes to beans 👌👌

Thanks! According to “my friend” it was mostly canned beans, so that’s good.
You can, but you need to soak them overnight first https://kitchenpearls.com/can-you-put-raw-beans-in-slow-cooker/
