Health Benefits
Sprouted mung beans are a good source of protein, fibre, and antioxidants, which can help to support a healthy diet.
Additionally, sprouting mung beans reduces the levels of phytic acid, an antinutrient that can inhibit the absorption of minerals like zinc, magnesium, and calcium. Sprouting also increases the availability of free amino acids and reduces the calorie content of the beans.

Good quality beans, I’ve had an excellent success rate with them. They are crunchy, fresh with a slightly sweet taste. I add them to everything and quite often grow them as a mix with peas, chickpeas and lentils.

Casey Hanson (Verified Buyer) –
These work really well in stir fries. My kids at them and enjoyed them. We just added them in a couple of minutes towards the end of the stir fry and they were great in terms of texture. Not too soft and not too hard!
