The mung bean has been documented to ameliorate hyperglycemia, hyperlipemia, and hypertension, and prevent cancer and melanogenesis, as well as possess hepatoprotective and immunomodulatory activities. These health benefits derive primarily from the concentration and properties of those active compounds present in the mung bean. Vitexin and isovitexin are identified as the major polyphenols, and peptides containing hydrophobic amino acid residues with small molecular weight show higher bioactivity in the mung bean.

This review provides insight into the nutritional value of mung beans and its sprouts, discussing chemical constituents that have been isolated in the past few decades, such as flavonoids, phenolic acids, organic acids, amino acids, carbohydrates, and lipids. Moreover, we also summarize dynamic changes in metabolites during the sprouting process and related biological activities, including antioxidant, antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, antidiabetic, antihypertensive, lipid metabolism accommodation, antihypertensive, and antitumor effects, etc.[ Tang D, Dong Y, Ren H, Li L, He C.

Livestock often sustain sprains or dislocation of joints in their limbs. Durbar practices a traditional method he learnt from his ancestors to heal the animals in distress. It involves the use of a fine paste of unhusked green gram (Vigna radiata) mixed with common salt. Soak whole green gram seeds (not husked) in water overnight. Grind into a fine paste, adding common salt. Smear the dislocated or sprained part with this paste and allow to dry in air for several minutes. Apply clean cotton wool and wrap with a bandage and apply bamboo splints to demobilize the joint. Keep the bandage in place till the animal is pain-free. |
