(1) Certain components in mung beans have direct antibacterial effects.

(2) Indirect antibacterial effect by improving immune function.

The effect of mung bean garlic porridge

Studies have found that the structure of phytosterols in mung beans is similar to that of cholesterol. Phytosterols compete with cholesterol for esterification enzymes, preventing it from esterification and reducing the absorption of cholesterol in the intestine. They can also reduce serum cholesterol levels by promoting cholesterol dissimilation and/or preventing cholesterol biosynthesis in the liver. In addition, soybean globulin has been experimentally proven to have the effect of lowering serum cholesterol. Whether mung bean globulin has the same effect is worth exploring.

Experiments have found that mung beans have a certain preventive effect on lung cancer and liver cancer in mice induced by sodium nitrite. Other experiments have confirmed that phenylalanine ammonia lyase extracted from mung beans has a significant inhibitory effect on mouse leukemia L1210 cells and human leukemia K562 cells, and the inhibitory effect increases significantly with the increase of enzyme dosage and the extension of action time. For the same 48h action, the inhibition rate of 0.7U/ml enzyme is 52% and 14.1% respectively. When the enzyme is increased to 3.5U/ml, it can reach 77.1% and 85.8% respectively. When 0.20%, 1.0%, 2.0%, 4.0%, 6.0%, and 10.0% enzyme is used on cancer cells for 72h, the inhibition rates are 25.8%, 40.0%, 55.3%, 72.6%, 77.9%, and 82.9% respectively.

Mung beans are rich in protein. The protein content of raw mung bean milk made by soaking and grinding raw mung beans is quite high. Oral administration can protect the gastrointestinal mucosa. Mung bean protein, tannins and flavonoids can combine with organophosphorus pesticides, mercury, arsenic and lead compounds to form precipitates, which reduce or lose their toxicity and are not easily absorbed by the gastrointestinal tract. Many bioactive substances in mung beans have antioxidant effects. Whether the antioxidant effect can reduce the cytotoxicity and genotoxicity of organophosphorus pesticides in the treatment of organophosphorus pesticide poisoning needs further discussion.
