Broad beans give me wind!

Thanks for your reply Esmay. The situation is now improved although we are still picking the beans!

If you are eating them that fresh - then delicious as they are - they will give you flatulance :

Try soaking the beans overnight and changing the water before cooking .
Or :
You could add some apple cider vingar at the end of cooking them .
Or :
If you like the taste of asafoetida from Indian grocery stores - a little added is a well known digestive .
Or :
Seaweed sold as nori originally from Japanese shops , but I think available from the big supermarkets will also stop it if you add some .

If you didn't have this problem before maybe your stomach is upset .
Have you had antibiotics recently ?
Maybe take some probiotics to restore the natural balance .

Meanwhile enjoy those beans !
