Mung bean starch noodles (often called mung bean vermicelli). These are noodles made from mung bean starch, so they are mainly carbohydrates with very little fat and almost no sugar.
Why it matters to health
AI-assisted
Per 100 g, it has about 345 kcal and 85.5 g carbohydrates, with 0.5 g fiber. This means it can give you quick energy, but it may not keep you full as long as higher-fiber carbs. The good part: it has very low fat (about 0.2 g) and no cholesterol, and low sodium (about 7 mg) in the starch itself. The main thing to watch is the portion and what you pair it with—especially if you’re eating it with salty sauces or lots of fried toppings.
Healthier tips
AI-assisted
  • Use it as your carb portion for one meal: aim for a serving that fits your plate (for example, about 1–2 small bowls cooked, depending on your appetite and activity).
  • Pair with protein (tofu, chicken, shrimp, eggs, or fish) and non-starchy vegetables (bok choy, cabbage, carrots, mushrooms) to balance the meal.
  • Boost fiber by adding more vegetables and using less sauce; choose light or homemade broth when possible.
  • If you’re having it for snacks, keep the portion smaller and pair with a protein (like boiled egg or tofu) to help you stay satisfied.
  • For a typical day (3 meals + 1–2 snacks), don’t make noodles the main carb in every meal—rotate with rice, oats, or whole grains.
