It was
reported that isoflavone content in bean seed was only about 1–
5 mg/g, it was not enough for functional benefits (Seung, Yu, &
Hyun, 2009). It has been well documented (Xu, 2003; Fernandez-
Orozco et al., 2008; Yang, Chen, Zhang, & Zhang, 2010) that both
non-germinated soybean and mung bean do not contain L-ascorbic
acid. This context indicates that it is not enough for people to meet
nutritional needs and for manufacturer to produce functional products
and dietary supplement by directly using the raw (non-germinated)
bean as food materials for consumption.
