Can I eat canned organic black beans cold from the can?

I live in a cargo van and don't have much options.  It would be the most convenient way of having them.  I would rinse them with water first though. What are your thoughts?  Is it safe?  Is there anything I should be concerned about?

I can understand you. I sometimes have to eat cold meat. But eating tons of resistant starch with beans this way-I think it's a bad idea.

Is it because when we heat them back up it reduces resistant starch?  Or is the amount just the same and you're talking just about the cold vs hot?    Also I've read resistant starch has some benefits but you're saying it's too much of it probably right?

 

Ugh.  I just read canned beans can contain many things like heavy metals and nitrates(which may be bad for people with low blood pressure as nitric oxide dilates veins, I think might be linked to vericose veins - there's always something bad if we look hard enough lol. 

@john, are you saying that the plain canned beans in water have nitrates? Or are the nitrates added? 
I often eat organic canned beans - and I do have low blood pressure, so I wonder.

To be honest, I doubt about the benefits of resistant starch(but I didn't really understand the topic). But I think if you eat, for example, half a kilo of cold canned beans a day , it will be too much resistant starch and it will cause more problems with endotoxin/lactate, etc., than benefits

By the way, after my unsuccessful experiments with various types of meat (yesterday I ate too much pork and, it seems, it made me burr) I went back to a diet of (mostly) beans. I'm waiting for the flatulence to pass

BTW, Icame up with the idea (even earlier) to soak beans in milk so that calcium binds oxalate there. But I don't know how much it works.

Thanks.  I guess the only way to find out is to try it... I just had my first cold canned organic beans Target brand, will get Costco later. 
Edit... although the lactate kind of scares me, cause I think I have an issue with lactic acidosis. Can't be sure of anything, nothing concrete to go by, doctor isn't too helpful with getting to the bottom of things, rather prescribe and wait and see.
