Mung beans are pulses. The figures here are for whole dried mung beans that have been soaked and boiled in unsalted water. They mainly provide carbohydrate, protein and fibre. Per 100g, they contain 16g of carbohydrate, 8.6g of protein and 6.1g of fibre, with 0.7g of fat.
Protein contributes to the growth and maintenance of muscle, while fibre supports normal bowel function. These boiled beans contain little saturated fat and only trace amounts of salt. This reflects preparation without added salt; adding salt, stock or sauces can change the salt content of the finished dish. Full nutrient figures are given in the tables below.

About these figures
