Hung Yen: Bean Sprouts tea - OCOP product has macrobiotic value
The demand for natural and healthy foods is increasing day by day. Taking care of your health as well as that of your family members is always one of the top priorities.
Having grasped that trend, along with the local people's desire to consume agricultural products, Mr. Luong Van Toan in Hiep Cuong commune, Kim Dong district, Hung Yen province has launched tea and powder products made from the sprouts of beans, paddy grains, ... with the brand name Luong Thao Beans Sprouts.

Mr. Toan said: “The difference is that our tea is made from the sprout of the seed, when sprouted, under the effect of activated enzymes, the content of nutrients increases many times compared to normal. Bean sprouts are fermented 100% naturally, without flavoring, preservatives or additives.
The seeds will be washed, removing flat, wormed or broken seeds, then pre wetted to stimulate seed germination. In particular, the sprouts should not be left to grow too long, leading to poor taste and easy burning of sprouts when roasting.
Although cereal grains are derived from plants, they contain even more nutrients than meat and fish. In addition to providing vitamins, using tea from bean sprouts daily also helps detoxifying, cooling the liver, purifying the body, burning excess fat, preventing constipation, ensuring deep sleep, regulating blood pressure, supporting blood pressure and treating diabetes. Especially, it helps to prevent oxidation, increase resistance and reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease and stroke.

In bean sprouts, there are no anti-nutritional substances that inhibit enzymes inherent in ungerminated seeds because they have been dissolved during the prewetting. Therefore, consumers will not experience flatulence and indigestion.
In 2021, Luong Thao Bean Sprout Business Household has had 4 products certified by the People's Committee of Hung Yen Province as 4-star OCOP products: black bean sprout tea, red bean sprout tea, cereal grain sprout tea, soybean sprout powder and 6 products with 3-star OCOP rating which includes brown rice sprout tea, soybean sprout tea, red bean sprout powder, cereal grain sprout powder, brown rice sprout powder and black bean sprout powder.
“OCOP certified products have contributed to the elevation of the brand. Along with the success achieved, in the coming time, we will continue to invest in technology and machinery to improve product quality and innovate packaging designs to assert the brand," Mr. Toan shared.

Raw materials for making tea are supplied mainly from farmer households in Hung Cuong and Phu Cuong communes of Kim Dong district through the association of production according to green-clean farming methods. Thanks to that, every year, Mr. Luong Duc Toan's production facility has supported the consumption of tens of tons of beans and rice seeds, helping farmers feel comfortable to increase production, improve income, and create jobs for local people.
Mr. Quach Dai Hung, Chairman of Hiep Cuong Commune People's Committee Ward said: "Although Luong Thao Bean Sprouts Business Household has only been producing for a few years, they have been highly evaluated by consumers, products quickly run out wherever they sell them. Thanks to the stable output of products, the establishment has supported the consumption of a large portion of agricultural produce from farmers in the commune, thereby helping them to develop economically."
