One advantage of glutinous rice red bean porridge is that it won't be sticky. Red beans and glutinous rice will always rot at the bottom, and the red soup will be on it. Most of the effective ingredients of glutinous rice and red beans are in the soup.
Put more water when cooking porridge, and these soups will be enough for us to drink for half a day, just as tea. If it is summer, you should try to finish it in the morning, because it will go bad in the afternoon.
As for the efficacy, it is really serious. Coix lachryma-jobi seed, called "Coix lachryma-jobi seed" in Chinese medicine, is listed as the top grade in Shennong Herbal Classic. It can eliminate dampness and benefit the stomach, eliminate edema, strengthen the spleen and benefit the stomach, and can strengthen the body and replenish qi if taken for a long time.
Red beans, known as "adzuki beans" in Chinese medicine, also have obvious diuretic and detumescence effects and spleen and stomach strengthening effects. Because they are red, they can nourish the heart. Modern people have great mental stress, lack of heart-qi, improper diet, little exercise, spleen deficiency and dampness.
To eliminate dampness, nourish the heart and strengthen the spleen and stomach, barley and red beans are the only ones. Boiling it into porridge is intended to make its effective components fully absorbed by the human body, while not causing any burden to the spleen and stomach.
The "detumescence" effect of coix seed and red bean is also very interesting. We must not think that swelling is edema.
Look at people nowadays. At least 5-6 people in 10 are fat and swollen, which is called bloated. In Chinese medicine, obesity or edema means that the body is wet.
Water can't flow with qi and blood and stay between human cells, which makes the human body expand rapidly. So is edema, so is obesity, but the degree is deep and shallow.
Drugs or foods with strong dampness-removing properties can discharge these residual water in the human body, and can also reduce swelling. Therefore, red beans must be used to treat edema, and practice has proved that barley red bean porridge has a good weight loss effect, which can not only lose weight, but also does not hurt the body, especially suitable for middle-aged and elderly people and obese people.
People often ask: "Why can't glutinous rice and red bean porridge be cooked into a sticky shape?" Someone also said to me, "I added a handful of rice when I cooked glutinous rice and red bean porridge, and the porridge became thicker." It tastes so beautiful! " I said, "Never add more rice!" Why? Because rice grows in water and contains moisture, it is wet and sticky, so it thickens as soon as it is cooked. Red beans and coix seed are all dampness-removing, so they are not strong and the soup is very clear.
Traditional Chinese medicine just uses its clarity to get rid of the dryness and dampness of the human body. Once rice is added, it is equivalent to adding water, so the whole porridge is thick. Although the taste may be better, it is not a good thing for health. Because of that handful of rice, all the red beans and barley were wasted, and the effect was useless.
People who are worried, overworked and do little exercise on weekdays often have a dull face, lack of energy, and even palpitations and drowsiness, feeling heavy as a bundle and empty inside. This is a sign of wet body and weak heart. You can add some longan to the barley and red bean porridge and cook it together.
Longan is sweet in taste and warm in nature, which can stimulate appetite, strengthen the spleen, soothe the nerves, replenish blood, nourish the heart and yang, warm the heart and make people full of essence. Especially suitable for mental workers and middle-aged and elderly people.
Young people are prone to irritability, insomnia, or rashes and acne on their faces, all of which are caused by excessive heart fire and damp heat. You can add lily or lotus seeds to glutinous rice and red bean porridge and cook them together, or both. Lily can moisten the lungs, nourish the skin, clear the heart and soothe the nerves.
Lotus seeds can nourish the heart, clear the heart, strengthen the spleen and tonify the kidney at the same time, but lotus seeds have a slightly astringent effect, which can be used by people with weak constitution, but I am afraid it is not suitable for fat people with more stasis in the body. When using lotus seeds, you should remove the heart inside.
Of course, if this porridge has no taste, you can add some rock sugar. Among all kinds of sugar, only rock sugar is cold and can clear the heart.
If you have a cold, chills, stomachache and a bad appetite, you can add a few slices of ginger to the barley and red bean porridge. Ginger is warm, which can warm the middle warmer, dispel cold, strengthen the spleen and regulate the stomach.
Be careful, don't put too much ginger, it will make porridge spicy. If you want to add some seasoning to this porridge, you can only put brown sugar, which is also warm.
It is worth mentioning that when women maintain postpartum, they should remove coix seed and add jujube when drinking this porridge. Jujube can warm the middle warmer, strengthen the spleen and nourish blood, which is very suitable. People with kidney deficiency can add some black beans to barley and red bean porridge.
Because black enters the kidney, and the shape of beans is very similar to that of the kidney, it is a good product for tonifying the kidney. Now people often say beriberi, which is a typical hot and humid bet.
You can add soybeans to the highland barley and red bean porridge, eat the porridge and wash your feet with soup. Treating both inside and outside has a good effect.
If you cough, you can also peel and core the raw pear and cut it into small pieces 1~2 cm square. Add it to glutinous rice and red bean porridge and cook it together, which can moisten the lungs, resolve phlegm and quench thirst. Yam and pumpkin can also be cooked together in barley and red bean porridge.
Yam is known as "Little Ginseng". Sometimes, it is more beneficial than ginseng. It is a sacred product for nourishing the spleen and stomach, which can tonify the kidney and replenish essence, moisten the lungs and replenish qi. Pumpkin can tonify the middle energizer, relieve inflammation and pain, kill insects and detoxify, which is a very good thing for protecting pancreas and preventing diabetes.

Moisture in the body is harmful to the body, so we must do a good job of eliminating moisture in time and do more exercise.

In China's traditional dietary pattern, plant food (cereals and vegetables) is the main food, and the intake of high-quality protein is seriously insufficient. The imbalance of osmotic pressure leads to the accumulation of body fluids to form swelling, which is often called "edema". Using coix seed instead of the same amount of rice and flour can intake about 25% more protein, effectively alleviating malnutrition in protein and reducing water retention in the body.
The "dampness-removing" ability of red beans can be said to be the same as that of barley, and it is dubbed as "dampness-removing duo". Red bean is also a typical representative of high protein (dried red bean 1/5 is protein), and the ratio of potassium to sodium is very high (about 400/ 1), which can increase the discharge of water and sodium and play the role of "eliminating dampness".
