Matters needing attention in Poria cocos, red beans and barley soup:
1, Coix seed gorgon bean porridge has a good effect of eliminating dampness, while rice is wet and sticky. Therefore, if the rice is combined with this glutinous rice porridge, the moisture in the rice will destroy the dehumidification effect of the dish itself, which will have the opposite effect. Therefore, whether cooking porridge or eating porridge, don't eat rice and barley porridge at the same time.
2, glutinous rice red bean porridge can replenish the spleen and stomach, but the eating time needs attention. Generally speaking, it should be eaten after breakfast and before lunch. Because this time in the morning is the time when the stomach meridian and spleen meridian start to operate one after another, eating barley and red bean porridge at this time can get twice the result with half the effort. At the same time, be careful not to drink on an empty stomach, which will cause harm to the stomach.
3, the constitution is too cold to eat more, otherwise it may aggravate the cold constitution. People with a bad stomach had better not eat it. Normal people should not eat more, otherwise abdominal pain and diarrhea may occur.
