Can I add milk powder to rice porridge?
-Hello, you can totally do that! There is no conflict between porridge and milk powder. As long as the baby likes this milk-flavored porridge, you can naturally eat it together! You can also feed your baby milk powder with a spoon!
-It's best not to give it to your baby like this, because this milk powder is not easy to dissolve and is not conducive to your baby's absorption.
Of course not. If the two are combined, it is a strange smell that the baby doesn't want to eat.
-You'd better not. Starch in porridge will destroy the nutrition of milk powder and reduce its nutritional value.
-If the baby doesn't like milk powder, you can use this method. After the baby gradually accepts the milk powder, gradually reduce the amount of porridge, or it is better to wash the milk powder with warm water.
According to your mother's experience, you can still do this, but it is a last resort. If you can, don't suggest it!
What are the benefits of drinking porridge?
Drinking porridge is one of the traditional health preserving methods in China. As long as you drink porridge wisely, you can not only make fat people lose weight, help patients with "three highs" control their illness, but also help people with diarrhea and indigestion recover.
First of all, porridge can help replenish water, which is suitable for dry autumn and winter in the north and sweaty summer in the south. The water content of porridge is usually as high as 90% or even higher, and the combination of water and starch in porridge passes through the digestive tract very slowly and stays in the human body for a long time, which makes people feel more moist than drinking water alone.
Secondly, porridge helps to reduce dietary energy and control weight. Porridge has a large volume, low energy density and less "dry goods". 100 grams of rice contains more than 100 kilocalories, while 100 grams of thick porridge contains only about 30 kilocalories. The large volume of porridge will make people feel full more easily, which is conducive to preventing excess energy. If you don't drink white rice porridge, but drink miscellaneous grains and bean porridge, you will feel fuller. Therefore, people who want to lose weight can effectively reduce the energy of staple food and lose weight easily, without feeling hungry and reducing nutrient intake.
The third advantage of porridge is that it is good for the stomach. Especially in the case of low gastrointestinal function or diarrhea caused by intestinal infection, it is best to drink some porridge. Even if there is no gastrointestinal disease, people will feel loss of appetite if they eat too much greasy food and high-protein food. At this time, drinking two meals of porridge can give the gastrointestinal tract a temporary rest. But it is not recommended to drink white rice porridge. Although it is easy to digest, its nutritional value is low, which is extremely unfavorable for controlling blood sugar and weight. It is best to cook porridge with miscellaneous grains and beans. The fourth advantage of drinking porridge is that it can help people diversify their staple foods. Although miscellaneous grains and beans have high nutritional value, many people find it difficult to swallow if they are used for cooking. After cooking porridge, the taste becomes pleasing to the eye.
What should I pay attention to when drinking porridge? 1, you can't always drink porridge for three meals.
Many people often make this kind of mistake. Eating porridge properly is really good, but you can't drink it suddenly. Porridge is a liquid food, which is worse in nutrition than rice with the same volume. And porridge is "not full". I felt full when I ate, but I was hungry again soon.
In the long run, it will be malnourished due to insufficient energy and nutrition intake. Therefore, we should also pay attention to balanced nutrition when drinking porridge. Boil the porridge thicker, eat it with meat dishes, or eat snacks between meals. , can replenish energy.
2. Ice porridge is not advisable.
Ice porridge is a hot food in summer, but it is not suitable for the elderly and children who have a cold and are weak. Drinking too much ice porridge will not only block the sweat pores of the human body, but also make it difficult for metabolic waste to be excreted, which may also affect the gastrointestinal function.
3, diabetic patients should drink porridge in moderation.
Diabetic patients are generally more likely to be hungry, and porridge has the characteristics of fast digestion, so it is easy for people to eat quickly and want to eat; Porridge itself is easily absorbed by the body in a short time, leading to a rapid increase or excessive fluctuation of blood sugar. Diabetic patients should drink porridge in moderation, a small bowl at a time.
People with bad stomachs should drink less.
Many people think porridge nourishes the stomach. But in fact, this view is not comprehensive. Because you don't have to chew slowly, you can't promote the secretion of things that can help digestion in the oral salivary glands. Moreover, porridge with high water content will dilute gastric acid after entering the stomach, accelerate the expansion of the stomach, and make the stomach move slowly, which is also not conducive to digestion.
