Detailed Description

Mung beans, small green legumes, are native to hot and humid atmospheres in India, Pakistan and Southeast Asia. They have experienced interest in food and health circles over the recent years. Today, they are harvested and grown all around the world, although they generally trace their roots back to the cuisines of these parts of the world. They are a great staple food that can provide you with a good amount of protein and much more. Also known as green beans in Chinese cuisine and as a set of variations on the word "mung" throughout many other cultures, mung beans are full of vitamins and nutrients. However, there are a few things that you should know about the foods before you consider purchasing them, growing your own or including them in your regular cooking pattern. Mung beans can be eaten in a variety of different ways. The most common of these are to allow them to sprout and then to eat them whole. Bean sprouts are a good source of vitamin C and make a nutritious addition to sandwiches and salads. Mung bean sprouts may look grayish-yellow in color. To sprout the beans, soak them overnight and then allow them to sprout for a couple of days. The sprouting can increase their nutritional value and make them even easier on the digestive system. Dietary fiber is necessary for the proper functioning of your intestinal and digestive tracts. First, they provide an excellent source of dietary fiber. Mung beans do not provide as much protein as many other types of beans, but they are still rich in protein; a single serving of them contains about 6 grams of protein. So, mung beans are a great source of many necessary vitamins, minerals and other nutrients. Furthermore, they are a great source of vitamin C, thiamin, vitamin A and many other nutrients as well. Generally, mung beans are considered to be a healthy food because they contain no fat, they are very low in sodium, and they're quite low in cholesterol. They have an average level of calories as compared with other beans. Legumes such as mung beans are a popular alternative to meat for vegetarians and those on strict budgets since they pack a lot of protein for the price. They also make an excellent diet food since one cup of the product is less than 30 calories. The beans are also quite high in potassium, fiber, magnesium and B vitamins.
