Eating a corn every day is very good for the human body. Because the dietary fiber contained in corn can promote intestinal peristalsis and achieve the purpose of clearing intestines. But corn is coarse grains after all, which is not as easy to digest as flour and rice. Excessive consumption will cause gastrointestinal burden, which can not be absorbed and cause waste. Therefore, eating 1 2 corn a day is the most scientific and economical choice.

There are many kinds of corn, including waxy corn, common corn and fruit corn. Among them, waxy corn is the easiest to cook and the most sticky in taste.
