They are basically the same thing, but yeah, I agree that this could have been a basic google search that would have given the answer instantly.

Kidney beans are rich protein, as each 1/2 cup contains 8 g, which is the same amount in an 8 oz. serving of milk. Protein is a vital nutrient for bodybuilding, as it provides the amino acids your body uses to build and repair muscles.

i would use an enzyme, they are hard to digest for many

Beans can be a great addition to your diet. Good carbs, fibre, protein. Just eat the ones you like.
