If they are anything like the beans I usually eat, no one wants to get within 20 feet of me afterwords. My wife even makes me sleep in the den.
As such, I am not exposed to any germs or viruses.
Soy has estrogen, no thanks.
My wife and I have eaten natto beans on and off, for over a dozen years.
They are strangely slimy, but otherwise don’t have much taste, which is why they give you both a vinegar and a mustard packet.
They are the highest source of vitamin K2-MK7 in the world.
Are you SURE it’s just the beans that keep people away? 😇
Sorry, just joking!
20 feet is more separation than the COVID standard 6 feet. Flatten the curve. Brrrap!
May I ask: WHY do you eat them, if they are slimy and don’t have much taste?
And just six days ago: "Italian Study Shows That Oral Probiotics Comprising Lactic Acid Bacteria And Bifidobacteria Decreases Risk Of Respiratory Failure In COVID-19
I'm willing to give it a try if Fauci comes out against it.
Lived in Japan 3 years. Love love love 99.9% of Japanese food. Natto (fermented soy beans that are nearly rotting) is not one of those. Shiokara (salted fermented squid or fish intestines) is another. Call me picky.
Hmmm, I’ll be on the fence.
Natto is fermented. So no problem with the estrogen issue.
And in next weeks news, Researcher at Tokyo University of Agriculture and Technology (TUAT) who says Natto Beans good to ward off COVID has large Naato Bean farm.
So do soy beans, tofu, tempeh, soy beverages, linseed (flax), sesame seeds, wheat, berries, oats, barley, dried beans, lentils, rice, alfalfa, mung beans, apples, carrots, wheat germ, ricebran if you’re talking about phytoestrogens.
Cow’s milk has actual estrogen. All animal products contain estrogen.
Since the highly infectious Delta variant now rules the roost, folks should grind up the beans into a fine dry powder and inhale the powder through the nasal cavities.
But seriously penicillin being discovered by observation of the effects of a mold on a lab specimen of bacteria is simply one of many medicines being serendipitously discovered from nature.
At equal levels?
The only things I consume on your list are berries, oats, and carrots.
“Cow’s milk has actual estrogen.”
“Milk is for babies.”

How about castor beans? :)
I take it you don't eat meat, then? And that you are a plant?
Anyway, natto is a traditionally fermented food, so there would be no such issues anyway.
Vitamin K2, I believe.
But even if it you didn't like the taste, it makes you feel good, and, at least for me, I run/hike faster after I eat it, not to mention other health benefits.
