| PAS 1 | 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.

| PAS 2 | 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.

| PAS 3 | The raw mung bean polysaccharides (R-WSP) exhibited higher antioxidant ability than the sprouted mung polysaccharides (S-WSP). The results suggested that germination causes the change in polysaccharides content and the water soluble polysaccharides of raw mung beans can be further deduce to identify the principal component for its antioxidant potential.
