Nutritional value of soybean sprouts

Carbohydrates

For an adult with a 2,000-calorie diet, soybean sprouts will provide approximately 4-5.7% carbohydrates (about 225-325g) needed to be absorbed by the body daily.

Soybean sprouts contain 2.4g of digestible fiber per 100g – around 7% of the recommended daily nutritional value for men and 8.5% for women.

Protein

Soybean sprouts are a moderately rich source of plant-based protein. Each 100g of soybean sprouts provides approximately 5.3g of protein – 11% of the recommended daily nutritional value for women and 9.4% for men. The protein in soybean sprouts is an incomplete protein as it does not provide all the necessary amino acids for the body.

In addition to meat and fish sources, to ensure sufficient intake of complete proteins for a healthy body, it is recommended to consume a variety of vegetables, legumes, seeds, and grains on a daily basis.

Vitamins

100g of cooked soybean sprouts contains good amounts of vitamin B, riboflavin, pantothenic acid, vitamin B6, thiamin, and niacin. Soybean sprouts are also a significant source of vitamin C (approximately 19.8mg of vitamin C per 100g – equivalent to 22% of the recommended daily nutritional value for men and 26% for women).

Minerals

Soybean sprouts specifically have a high content of copper, with a cooked cup of soybean sprouts containing up to 316µg (equivalent to 0.32mg). On average, an adult needs to intake about 0.9mg of copper per day. This shows that a cup of soybean sprouts can fulfill about 35% of this nutritional requirement for the body.

In addition, 100g of soybean sprouts also contains a considerable amount of iron, providing nearly 30% of the essential nutritional needs for men and 13% for women.

Furthermore, soybean sprouts also contain magnesium, manganese, and zinc.
