Default Are bean sprouts allowed?

I have not seen bean sprouts listed. I saw alfalfa sprouts. Anyone know if bean sprouts are OK (fresh or canned)? Thanks!

This site claims bean sprouts are < 50 on the GI:

they have to be pretty high on fiber, so my guess would be go for it in small doses phase I and wild on II,III. nothing definitive on the 'official' site though.
