1, first of all, let's look at its antibacterial and bacteriostatic effects. It is found that some components in mung bean have direct antibacterial effect.

This effect comes from the outermost layer of mung bean coat, and its extract has inhibitory effect on staphylococcus. In addition, according to related research, mung beans contain a substance called tannin, which can coagulate microbial protoplasm and produce antibacterial activity. It is also found that bioactive substances such as flavonoids and phytosterols in mung beans may also have certain antibacterial and antiviral effects. At the same time, mung beans can also improve human immunity. Summer is also the season of bacterial virus flooding, therefore, this function of mung bean also determines that it is a good food for health in summer.

2. Reduce blood fat. Efficacy.

This is the conclusion drawn by scientists through animal experiments. Rabbits were fed with 70% mung bean powder or germinated mung bean powder. The results show that it can prevent and treat the increase of blood lipid in rabbits, and then obviously alleviate coronary heart disease. Why is there such an effect? It turns out that the phytosterol contained in mung beans is similar in structure to cholesterol, which can reduce the absorption of cholesterol in the intestine and thus reduce blood lipid.

Health preservation is carried out every season, but each season has different characteristics. Therefore, health care is also important. The focus of summer health care is to nourish the heart. Huangdi Neijing tells us that summer is the season of growth, and the corresponding five internal organs are the heart. Protecting the heart is the focus of summer health care. Mung bean has the function of lowering blood lipid, which is related to the health of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, because blood lipid is the chief culprit of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. If you can control blood lipids, you can certainly stay away from cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. If you can use mung beans for health preservation in summer, it will get twice the result with half the effort.

3. Anti-tumor.

This is also the result of animal experiments, mainly mice. Through experiments, it is found that mung bean has inhibitory effect on mouse liver cancer, and it is also found that mung bean has strong inhibitory effect on mouse leukemia.

Tumors always bring great troubles to people's health, and people still have a fear of tumors. If small mung beans have such magical effects, then we only need to eat more mung beans at ordinary times, and we can stay away from many tumors and cancers. This is really a cheap and effective health care method.
