Yes - if they're mashed, blended, or just a flour then they will be safer. Start with small amount of beans or lentils (including soy) so your gut gets used to digesting raffinose, the bean sugar that can cause gas.

That usually just takes about a week or so of eating small portions, and after that you'll have much better tolerance.

For whole cooked chickpeas, serve over rice, pasta, etc. for a better soluble fiber basis.

Best,
Heather
