Reason for Prohibiting Legumes in the Tayyibat Diet

Reason for prohibiting legumes in the Tayyibat Diet

●      Legumes such as fava beans and black-eyed peas are considered harmful in some cases, as it is believed that they may produce substances that can have toxic effects on the body and may lead to the breakdown of red blood cells.

●      There is a type of anemia known as “favism” (fava bean anemia), which occurs in individuals who have a deficiency in an enzyme called G6PD.

 If such a person consumes fava beans, lentils, or similar foods, red blood cell destruction may occur, leading to anemia and related health problems.

●      As for individuals who do not have this enzyme deficiency, consuming these foods may still cause fatigue or general bodily effects, but it does not lead to red blood cell breakdown or anemia.

●      Additionally, legumes contain skins and components that may cause digestive disturbances in some people, as the digestive system may not be fully adapted to them, making them unsuitable for everyone .
