Modern research shows that mung beans are rich in riboflavin, methionine, carotene, tryptophan, tyrosine, fructose, glucose, maltose, phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylinositol, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylserine and phosphatidic acid. These components have the effects of reducing blood lipid, reducing the toxicity of chemotherapy drugs, resisting oxidation, inhibiting the increase of blood urea nitrogen, increasing urine volume and reducing hematuria under specific experimental conditions.
