Are red beans toxic?
I've eaten raw green beans from my garden often. Many times when snapping off the tops and bottoms to cook them, I just pop beans into my mouth instead. I'm sure I've consumed at least a half a pound of them this way at a time. Then I cook the beans, but not too much because I like them still kinda crunchy with butter.I never even CONSIDERED that green beans could be toxic until I read that Kidney Beans have phytohemagglutinin when raw, and that this can actually increase on cooking if not cooked at 100C for 10 minutes which destroys it. Kidney beans/navy beans/green beans I believe are the same species of beans.If it were possible to get poisoning from raw/improperly cooked green beans however, I think I would most likely have discovered that given the way I prefer to eat them ( raw preferred to slightly cooked and will eat overcooked to canned greenbean texture if there is no choice ). I consider the way most people eat greenbeans to be overcooked mush.I also like to eat sprouted lentils. It never occurred to me that they might be poisonous. I don't think they are though as I've eaten LOTS of these.Still, I had considered trying Kidney Bean Sprouts, but I don't think I will now.

How long does it take for morphine injections given for chest pain to get out of the system?
It depends on the dosage given and the patient's morphine tolerance level (previous exposure/use of morphine or morphine derivatives). Generally however, most are only effective for about 4-6 hours. The rate of dissipation from the body is totally dependent on the patient as well, i.e., the patient's kidney function. Usually though within 48-72 hours most or all of it is gone. Again though, it depends on the dose and the patient - everyone is different, and you cannot rely on averages - they're simply guidelines.
