Sprouts, Source of Life

Sprouts, one of mung beans processed products are well known by the community as one vegetable. As a vegetable, sprouts are very suitable for a variety of cuisines, in addition to texture gives the sensation of its own, it also adds a fresh impression on the cuisine. Although use is widespread, but knowledge about the nutritional content of sprouts are still very limited. As with the raw material in the form of mung beans, sprouts have a high content of nutrients, especially minerals, vitamins and antioxidant.

Sprouts are rich in vitamin C. According to data from the U.S. Department of Agriculture, 3 cups sprouts contain 50% of daily value of vitamin C. 1 cup sprouts equivalent to 25% of daily value of Vitamin B1, B2 and B6, 15% of daily value of  Niacin / vitamin B3.

Folic acid contain in mung beans will increase during germination  until the age of 36 hours, then decreased. The function of folic acid is to prevent anemia, diarrhea, and stomach ulcers and intestine. Increasing vitamin B1 (thiamin), B2 (riboflavin), B3 (niacin), pyridoxine, biotin also occur during the germination process. Germination process also increases the content of vitamin E (tocopherol) significantly.

Sprouts as food believed to increase fertility. These beliefs likely arose related to the fact that the sprouts are a source of vitamin E (alpha-tocopherol) is quite potensial.Vitamin E is an antioxidant that may protect cells from free radical attack. By eating sprouts, there is the possibility of vitamin E it will protect the egg cells or sperm from a variety of damage caused by free radical attack. The attack of free radicals in sperm cells are likely to cause disability. For example, abnormalities occur in the tail or head, thus affecting its mobility within reach and fertilize the egg. As a result, difficult to place the process of pregnancy. Conversely, free radical attack on a woman's eggs will also be devastating, so that fertilization can not take place properly.

Sprouts are very abundant minerals content, sprouts 3 cups to meet the daily value of 10% zinc, potassium and magnesium, 25% daily requirement of phosphorus, manganese and iron, 50% daily requirement of copper. However, low sprouts will contain calcium, selenium and sodium.

Sprouts easier to digest than other foods, so that will give the digestive process efficiency, more quickly absorbed by the digestive system. Type of sprouts that in the manufacturing process is in place, open or subject to light will contain chlorophyll. Chlorophyll is known very well to prevent anemia. Sprout also has a regenerating effect on the human body, due to the high content of RNA, DNA, protein and essential nutrients such as those found in living cells.

During the process of germination, there was activation of an enzyme that causes the high concentration of enzyme in the seedling stage. This will stimulate the increase in enzyme activity during the metabolism of the body and encourage the regeneration of blood circulation system. Rejuvenation and Give of Life is 2 effects contained in the sprouts / seedlings. Provides vitamins and enzymes in abundance. The enzyme, made up of vitamins and minerals are vital factors in the process of life. Without enzymes, no life, decreased enzyme activity is the main factor of the aging process. Enzymes keep cells from damage by free radicals and toxin materials. Once the vital function of enzymes in life and the high content of enzymes in the seedling stage, so that the sprouts called "Source of Life".
