Low doses of digested mung bean sprouts don’t slow down stomach cancer cells at all, but higher doses slowly reduce their growth in a steady, predictable way.

Potentially Bioaccessible Phenolics from Mung Bean and Adzuki Bean Sprouts Enriched with Probiotic—Antioxidant Properties and Effect on the Motility and Survival of AGS Human Gastric Carcinoma Cells

Cross-Sectional Study

In Vitro

The study found that mung bean sprout extracts stop stomach cancer cells from growing even at low doses, not just high ones, and the effect doesn’t get stronger steadily with more extract—so the claim about a clear dose-by-dose increase is wrong.

Similar Assertions

The digested juice from adzuki bean sprouts can stop about 70% of stomach cancer cells from multiplying at a very small dose—much more than what mung bean sprouts can do at the same level.

86%

The digested juice from mung bean sprouts doesn’t really slow down stomach cancer cells much, except in a narrow middle range of doses—too little or too much doesn’t do anything.

86%

At low doses, digested adzuki bean sprouts stop stomach cancer cells from multiplying in a way that gets stronger with more dose—but at higher doses, this effect stops increasing and levels off.

83%

When stomach cancer cells are exposed to high doses of digested adzuki bean sprouts, their nuclei change shape to become round or oval—this is a known sign that the cells are starting to die.
