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.
Scientific Claim
Gastric digests of adzuki bean sprouts inhibit AGS cell proliferation by approximately 70% at a concentration of 0.2‰, with greater efficacy than mung bean sprout digests under the same conditions.
Original Statement
“The ABS extracts decreased the proliferation of AGS more effectively than the MBS extracts—0.2‰ ABS exerted c.a. 70% of inhibitions.”

Assessment Explanation
The effect was directly measured in a controlled in vitro system with precise concentration gradients and statistical analysis, justifying definitive language for the observed outcome.
Evidence from Studies
Supporting (1)
The study found that digested adzuki bean sprouts stopped about 70% of stomach cancer cell growth at a low dose, and did a better job than mung bean sprouts at the same dose.
