Mix Beans: Body Benefits

Body benefits

Why the bean mix helps

What is in the bean mix, and what those nutrients and plant compounds do in the body.

Micronutrients

Sprouting changes the seed itself. It breaks down phytate, a compound that blocks mineral absorption, and raises how much iron your body can take up, by about 39% in chickpea and 61% in mung bean in published data. Zinc does not follow the same pattern, so we claim iron specifically.

Fiber and protein

Our bean mix of garbanzo, pea, lentil, mung, and sunflower sprouts adds plant protein, fiber, and legume diversity. That is why it shows up in our gut, metabolic, satiety, and recovery blends.
