FAQ
Mung bean noodles contain the B vitamins thiamin, niacin, pantothenic acid, vitamin B-6 and folate. The B family of vitamins is essential for the formation and maintenance of cells in the body, especially nerve cells. They are critical nutrients for energy and brain activity, including mood and memory.
Mung bean noodles, also known as bean threads, cellophane noodles, glass noodles, and fen si, are chewy, thin, transparent noodles made from starch and water to get their translucent appearance. Depending on which country they're coming from, bean thread noodles can be made from a range of different kinds of starches.

But because they're slightly higher in carbs than most of the options on this list, I would recommend being strategic with their consumption.
Both are Chinese-style noodles, but they differ in what they are made out of. As the name suggests, rice noodles are made out of rice flour and water, while cellophane noodles are made out of mung bean flour and water, and are variously known as transparent noodles, glass noodles or bean thread noodles.
Mung beans are good because they supply protein and fiber and they protect the liver and you can eat them daily. Mung beans are popular as fresh salads and cooked as lentils or soup in India, China, and Southeast Asia. Mung beans are rich in proteins, vitamins, minerals, fiber, oligosaccharides, and polyphenols.
