Red bean is a common name for several plants and is also known as Adzuki beans which are commonly used in Japanese, Korean and Chinese cuisine. Red beans are a good source of iron, phosphorus and potassium. Red beans are also a great low-fat source of protein and dietary fibre. Having red beans in your diet can boost the quality of your diet, improve your overall health, aid weight loss and maintenance, keep blood sugar steady and lower your risk of certain cancers.

The mung bean is native to India and has been cultivated in China and most of Asia. The mung bean possesses many health benefits. Mung beans contain enzymes, nutrients and antioxidants which are essential for maintaining good health. Mung beans are good for the health of the eyes, hair, nails and liver. Mung beans also enhance blood circulation and are loaded with a high amount of fibre and are low in calories. Mung beans are used in traditional Chinese medicine for therapeutic uses e.g., to detoxify the body and eliminate heat.
