Mung beans are small, green legumes commonly used in Asian cuisine. Native to India and Southeast Asia, they are a versatile ingredient found in soups, curries, stir-fries, and desserts. Packed with nutrients, mung beans are an excellent source of plant-based protein, fiber, and vitamins such as folate, magnesium, and potassium. They also contain antioxidants that may support immune health and reduce inflammation. Low in calories and fat, mung beans are ideal for maintaining a balanced diet and promoting heart health. Their high fiber content aids digestion and helps stabilize blood sugar levels, making them a great choice for those managing diabetes. Mung beans are available dried, split, or sprouted, with sprouted mung beans offering additional benefits like increased vitamin C. Generally healthy, they should be consumed in moderation by individuals sensitive to legumes to avoid digestive discomfort.
