When mung beans become mung bean sprouts, will the nutrition change?

When I was a child, in winter, the vegetables at home were cabbage and radish. I eat cabbage and radish almost every day, and I don't want to eat it after eating. At this time, my mother will conjure up a dish in four or five days, which is white and tender, crystal clear as jade, crisp and tender, and this is mung bean sprouts. Soak mung beans in water, change the water twice a day, and put them on a warm kang. In a few days, mung beans will germinate and white and tender mung beans will come out. Now mung bean sprouts are cheap and are common people's home cooking. Once, mung bean sprouts were also expensive. Yuan Mei recorded the delicious food of mung bean sprouts with bird's nest in Poems about Garden.

Li Shizhen praised mung bean sprouts in the Ming Dynasty, believing that mung bean sprouts were edible medicinal materials and excellent dishes. Chinese medicine believes that mung bean sprouts are cool and sweet, which can not only clear away heat and relieve summer heat, dredge meridians, expel toxin and relieve triple energizer, but also regulate five internal organs, beauty beauty and diuresis. In modern medical research, mung bean sprouts are called longevity food.

Mung bean is a kind of food with high protein and carbohydrate, which will produce many substances beneficial to human body during germination. For example, part of the protein of mung beans will be decomposed into free amino acids, which will make mung bean sprouts taste more delicious after cooking. The raffinose originally contained in mung beans is easy to cause flatulence, but these flatulence-prone substances will all disappear after sprouting into mung bean sprouts. At the same time, mung beans will produce more vitamin C after germination, which is a vitamin that mung beans do not contain. It is of great benefit to prevent scurvy and increase the body's disease resistance.

Eating mung bean sprouts regularly can clear the stomach, clear away heat and toxic materials, clean teeth, reduce blood fat, soften blood vessels and lose weight healthily. It is a kind of plant medicine with good quality and low price.
