Mung bean is a common bean in our daily life. The efficacy and efficacy of mung bean are very high. It not only reduces the fire but also has the effect of preventing hypertension. In addition, what are the effects and functions of mung bean?
Nutrition secrets
Mung beans are rich in protein, fat, carbohydrates, vitamin B1, vitamin B2, folic acid, carotene, minerals, calcium, phosphorus, iron and other nutrients, of which proteins are mainly globulin. Phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylinositol, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylserine, and phosphatidic acid in mung bean phospholipids have an appetite enhancing effect.
Proteins and phospholipids: Provide essential nutrients for the vital organs of the body: It also has the effect of exciting nerves and increasing appetite.
Globulin: Detoxification, liver protection. To promote the decomposition of cholesterol in the liver into bile acid, accelerate the secretion of bile acid in the bile, but also reduce the absorption of cholesterol in the small intestine.
The globulin and polysaccharides in mung bean promote the decomposition of cholesterol into bile acid in the liver, accelerate bile salt secretion in bile and reduce the absorption of cholesterol in the small intestine. Therefore, it is a good choice to use mung bean hypolipidemic therapy in diet.
The effect and function of mung bean
1, antibacterial antibacterial
(1) Some components of mung bean directly have antibacterial effect.
(2) Indirectly exert antibacterial effects by improving immune function.
2, lipid-lowering
Studies have found that the structure of phytosterols contained in mung beans is similar to that of cholesterol. Phytosterols compete with cholesterol for esterification enzymes, making them unable to be esterified to reduce the absorption of cholesterol by the intestine, and can also help to promote cholesterol dissimilation and/or block the liver. Cholesterol biosynthesis and other ways to reduce serum cholesterol levels. In addition, glycinin has been experimentally confirmed to have a role in lowering serum cholesterol, and whether mung bean globulin has the same effect is worth exploring.
3, anti-tumor
Experiments have found that mung bean has a certain preventive effect on morphine + sodium nitrite-induced lung cancer and liver cancer in mice. Another experiment confirmed that the phenylalanine aminolyase extracted from mung bean has obvious inhibitory effect on mouse leukemia L 1 2 cells and human leukemia K 56 2 cells, and with the increase of enzyme dosage and the prolonged action time, The inhibitory effect was significantly increased with the same effect at 48 h, and the inhibitory rate of the enzyme at 0.7 U/ml was 52% and 14.1 %, respectively. When the enzyme was increased to 3.5 U/ml, it could reach 77.1% and 85.8%, respectively, and 0.2%. 1.0 %, 2.0 %, 4.0 %, 6.0 % and 10.0 % of the enzymes were exposed to cancer cells for 72 h. The inhibition rates were 25.8%, 40.0 %, 55.3 %, 72.6 %, 77.9% and 82.9%, respectively.
4, detoxification
Mung beans are rich in protein, raw green soybean milk immersed in green soybean milk protein content is quite high, oral administration can protect the gastrointestinal mucosa. Mung bean protein, tannins and flavonoids can be combined with organophosphorus pesticides, mercury, arsenic, and lead compounds to form precipitates that reduce or lose their toxicity and are not easily absorbed by the gastrointestinal tract. Mung bean bioactive substances have many anti-oxidation effects, whether in the treatment of organophosphorus pesticide poisoning through the anti-oxidation effect to reduce the organophosphorus pesticide cytotoxicity and genotoxicity needs further study.
