Organic Mung Beans

Mung beans are small, green, oval-shaped legumes native to India. They are typically cooked and eaten whole, or sometimes split into dhal. Mung beans can also be sprouted, which is a process of germinating the seeds to increase their nutritional value and digestibility.

Mung beans are often used in soups, stews, and salads, providing a source of protein and fiber. Sprouted mung beans are commonly found in deli salads and vegetable mixes. They can also be processed into flour or used as a base for plant-based dairy alternatives.

Mung beans are a nutritious food, rich in protein, fiber, vitamins, and minerals. They are not an additive and do not require FDA approval as a food ingredient. JECFA and EFSA have evaluated mung beans as a food, recognizing their nutritional value. No significant health concerns are associated with the consumption of mung beans at typical dietary levels.
