  • Publication number: 20030235644
    Abstract: Disclosed is a method for manufacturing green bean sprouts using yellow light, a process for preparing nutritional drink using the green bean sprouts and a nutritional drink prepared thereby. The method for manufacturing green bean sprouts of the invention has steps of: germinating wettedbeans under the lightening condition of yellow light; and, cultivating the germinated beans. The green bean sprouts manufactured by using yellow light contains nutritional elements and isoflavone at a similar level of those of the green bean sprouts manufactured by using several kinds of monochrome lights in a sequential manner, which makes possible the economical manufacturing of green bean sprouts. Moreover, the nutritional drink may be practically utilized for the uptake of isoflavone which is effective for the treatment of cancer and osteoporosis, and the control of cholesterol and glucose level in blood.
