Congratulations for going meatless! Most likely, it's the
beans that are giving you digestive problems. They contain
a lot of fiber; and if you're not used to consuming it, it
takes a while for your body to get acclimated. Keep going
though; after a while, your digestive problems will go
away. In the meantime, you might want to try "Beano".
