They are a great weight loss food...
...
Bean sprouts are some of the most nutrient dense foods in our diets and are considered a great food to eat when trying to lose weight.
Many nutritionists have even gone as far as saying that you can eat as many servings as you like each day because they contain very few calories.
An entire cup contains about 26 calories so if you ate 10 whole cups each day you'd only be at 250 calories, about 1/8 of what you need.
Because they are a low carb food they won't raise your insulin all that much. Raised insulin is what causes most weight gain (if elevated consistently) to occur so this is key.
Bean sprouts are a very good choice if you are looking to manage your weight through your diet. A cup or two gives you lots of nutrition but very few calories, no fat and hardly any carbs.
Eat and enjoy.
