Beansprouts, mung, raw

Mung beansprouts are the young shoots of mung beans. The figures here describe them raw, as purchased. They provide carbohydrate and some protein, together with vitamins and minerals. Per 100g, they contain 4g of carbohydrate, 2.9g of protein, 61µg of folate and 7mg of vitamin C.

Folate supports normal blood cell formation, while vitamin C helps the body absorb iron from plant foods. Mung beansprouts contain little fat or salt, although sauces and other additions can change the nutritional content of a dish. Raw sprouts can carry harmful bacteria, and thorough cooking reduces this risk. Full nutritional figures are in the tables below.
