Mung bean sprouts, that is, the buds of mung beans, are the tender buds issued by the seeds of leguminous plants mung beans after soaking. The edible part is mainly hypocotyl. During the germination of mung beans, vitamin C will increase a lot, and some protein will be decomposed into amino acids needed by various people, which can reach seven times the original content of mung beans. Therefore, the nutritional value of mung bean sprouts is greater than mung beans.
Mung bean sprouts have high medicinal value. Chinese medicine believes that mung bean sprouts are cool and sweet, which can not only clear away summer heat, dredge meridians, relieve all kinds of toxins, but also tonify kidney, diuresis, reduce swelling, nourish yin and strengthen yang, regulate five internal organs, beautify skin, relieve damp heat, reduce blood fat and soften blood vessels.
"Compendium of Materia Medica" records that all beans sprout, but the bud of this bean is unique and beautiful, which is regarded as unusual by today's people, but unknown by the ancients. However, due to the damp and hot qi, it is quite sore and angry, which is slightly different from the nature of mung beans.
Emerson said, "Health is the first wealth in life."
With the continuous development of society, people's living standards are also rising, and people pay more attention to their diet, such as health and nutrition.
Some people say: Why bother? You can buy a big bag for a few dollars. Yes, that's what you think, but I don't think so. Now, think about it, can you really eat those fruits and vegetables outside? Food safety issues are frequently exposed, and problems such as drug residues and food hygiene are worrying, which makes people more and more uneasy about food safety. A survey conducted by the Social Investigation Center of China Youth Newspaper on 200 1 person shows that 29.2% of the respondents' food security has improved and 23.8% of the respondents' food security has decreased. Meat products (58.5%), aquaculture products (52.5%) and fruits and vegetables (44.9%) are the most uneasy food categories for the current respondents. Therefore, when you are more and more aware of health, I prefer to do it myself for the health of my family, so why bother? Money can be bought, but not necessarily health. And I will always put the health of my family first. Number one。

So far, I have germinated in five ways, as shown in the second picture above, glass bottles, bean sprouts machines, plastic bottles, germination baskets and this time's medical stone. Although the first four kinds can also be made, their length and taste are not as good as this time, so I only use medical stone to germinate now. Simple and easy.
Steps:
1. Find a stainless steel steamer and spread a layer of medical stone (if the medical stone will fall off, just spread a layer of sponge or gauze underneath).
2. Sprinkle the dried mung beans on the medical stone and make it even.
3. Spread all the remaining medical stones on it and spread them evenly.
4. Cover with a black bag to avoid light, or you can fix the edge with a belt.
5. Water it once a day, and pour the medical stone thoroughly.
6. The bean sprouts can be harvested in three or four days. See if the picture is beautiful.
