Mung bean soup recipe for acne

Are mung beans good for acne?

Mung beans clear heat and toxins from the skin, and cool heat in the blood. Therefore, mung beans help to reduce acne and other skin symptoms, such as the common skin rash, cold sores, mouth ulcers, pimples and boils. My acupuncture Dr. used to prescribe a mung bean drink to my teen daughter to help clear her acne condition.

Research shows that the phytoestrogens in mung beans help to stimulate collagen and elastin in the skin and that mung beans inhibit the release of HMGB1 – a protein which contributes to inflammation.

This recipe can help to clear skin heat and reduce acne and other skin complaints as mentioned above.
