Product Description
Whole Black Urid also known as black mung bean originated in India and has been cultivated since ancient times. It is considered one of the best legume crops of India, having since spread to areas of southern Asia where it is now very popular in Vietnamese cooking. It is great for sprouting and also makes a delicious winter dahl.
Black Urid has a great nutritional profile and is a highly valuable pre-biotic (food) for our beneficial gut flora. This type of pre-biotic feeds the gut flora so that they can then produce specific fatty acids that aid in intestinal health, encourage a healthy weight and improve cardiovascular function.
