According to legend, it comes from temples, because monks give different alms and rice is different, so in the end, many kinds of rice often have a little left, so we have to put all the rice in the pot to cook, which forms today's ten-meter porridge, but it has high nutritional value.
Ingredients: Coix seed, brown rice, millet, black glutinous rice, barley, oats, buckwheat, Euryale euryales, lotus seeds and cereals.
Practice: Take a part of each of the ten kinds of miscellaneous grains, wash and soak for half an hour, put boiling water in the pot, stir constantly (in the same direction), turn to low heat (bubbling) for a long time after ten minutes, about one hour.
Ten-meter porridge is salty and sweet, and other ingredients can be added according to personal taste: jujube, longan pulp, lotus seeds, yam, or miscellaneous grains, such as sorghum, corn, peas, mung beans and red beans.
Efficacy: Regular consumption can lower blood pressure, reduce blood fat, soften blood vessels, regulate stomach and intestines, remove spots, beautify and lose weight, and also prevent diabetes and treat cancer.
The efficacy of some of these ingredients:
1, coix seed:
Sweet and light, slightly cold and non-toxic.
Meridian enters spleen, stomach, lung and large intestine.
Efficacy: clearing damp-heat, eliminating rheumatism, facilitating urination, benefiting lung and expelling pus, strengthening spleen and stomach, and strengthening bones and muscles.
Indications: rheumatism, body pain, damp-heat beriberi, damp-heat muscle spasm, damp arthralgia, edema, lung atrophy, lung abscess, cough, asthma, purulent blood, sore throat, carbuncle and heat stranguria.
Pregnant women and people with fluid failure and constipation are contraindicated; Not suitable for people with nocturnal emission and excessive urination.
It shows that the above function refers to the cooking of raw barley; If it is used to strengthen the spleen and stomach, benefit the stomach and intestines, and treat diarrhea due to spleen deficiency, it needs to be cooked and applied.
Coix seed has high nutritional value and is known as "the king of Gramineae in the world". Coix seed is edible, tastes like rice, is easy to digest and absorb, and can be cooked in porridge or soup. Winter melon soup in summer and autumn can be eaten with meals, clearing away heat and promoting diuresis. Because of its rich nutrition, coix seed is a good medicine for the elderly, pregnant women and children who are weak and recovered after a long illness, and can be taken frequently. Whether it is used for nourishing or treating diseases, the effect is very mild, slight cold does not hurt the stomach, and spleen is not nourishing. It is reported that coix seed treatment component coix seed ester not only has nourishing effect, but also is an anticancer agent, which can inhibit Ehrlich ascites cancer cells and can be used for gastric cancer and cervical cancer. In addition to the above-mentioned functions of coix seed ester, coix seed alcohol contained in coix seed root also has the functions of lowering blood pressure, diuresis, relieving fever and expelling ascaris, and is suitable for hypertension, urinary calculi, urinary tract infections, ascariasis and the like. Coix seed leaves can be decocted in water, which is fragrant and diuretic. The usual dosage of coix seed is 20-30 grams, and the dosage can be increased to 60 grams if the patient is seriously ill.
2. Brown rice:
Brown rice means that some external tissues, such as cortex, aleurone layer and germ, remain after hulling. Because of its rough taste, compact texture and time-consuming cooking, it is rarely eaten now. Polished rice is obtained by grinding brown rice and removing the outer tissue, which is the rice we usually eat. It not only looks white and delicate, but also tastes soft and refreshing. But nutrition experts point out that the nutritional value of brown rice is higher than that of polished rice. Why is this?
In fact, 60%-70% of the vitamins, minerals and a large number of essential amino acids in rice are accumulated in the outer tissue, while the nutritional value of the rice we usually eat has been lost in the processing process. Coupled with repeated elutriation in the cooking process, the vitamins and minerals in the outer layer are further lost, and the rest are mainly carbohydrates and part of protein, which is far less nutritious than brown rice. Don't underestimate these outer tissues retained in brown rice, which have high nutritional value.
Modern nutrition research has found that rice bran and germ in brown rice are rich in vitamin B and vitamin E, which can improve human immune function, promote blood circulation, help people eliminate depression and irritability, and make people full of vitality. In addition, the content of trace elements such as potassium, magnesium, zinc, iron and manganese in brown rice is high, which is beneficial to prevent cardiovascular diseases and anemia. It also retains a large amount of dietary fiber, which can promote the proliferation of intestinal beneficial bacteria, accelerate intestinal peristalsis, soften feces, and prevent constipation and intestinal cancer; Dietary fiber can also combine with cholesterol in bile to promote the discharge of cholesterol, thus helping patients with hyperlipidemia to lower their blood lipids.
Eating brown rice is especially beneficial to diabetics and obese people. Because the carbohydrate in it is wrapped by crude fiber tissue, the digestion and absorption speed of human body is slow, so it can control blood sugar well; At the same time, trace elements such as zinc, chromium, manganese and vanadium in brown rice are beneficial to improve the sensitivity of insulin and help people with impaired glucose tolerance. Japanese research has proved that the glycemic index of brown rice is much lower than that of white rice, and it has a better satiety when eating the same amount, which is conducive to controlling food intake and thus helping obese people lose weight.
3. Oats:
High nutritional value. According to the comprehensive analysis of the Institute of Health of China Academy of Medical Sciences, naked oats in China are among the best compared with the other eight kinds of grains in terms of crude protein 15.6%, fat 8.5%, heat released by starch, phosphorus, iron, calcium and other elements. The water-soluble dietary fiber in oats is 4.7 times and 7.7 times that of wheat and corn, respectively. Oats are rich in B vitamins, nicotinic acid, folic acid and pantothenic acid, especially vitamin E, which is as high as 15 mg per 100 g oat flour. In addition, oat flour also contains saponins (the main component of life) that are lacking in cereals. Protein has a comprehensive amino acid composition, with the highest content of eight essential amino acids, especially the lysine content of 0.68 g. ..
Medical care is of great value. The medical value and health care function of oats have been recognized by medical circles at home and abroad. According to 198 1 ~ 1985, China Academy of Agricultural Sciences, Beijing Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Research Center, Beijing Haidian Hospital and other 18 medical units, five rounds of animal experiments and three rounds of clinical observation studies have proved that naked oats can prevent and treat cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases caused by hyperlipidemia. That is, taking naked oats for 3 months (daily 100g) can obviously reduce cholesterol, triglyceride and β-lipoprotein in cardiovascular system and liver, and the total effective rate is 87.2%. There is no significant difference between the curative effect and Guanxinping, and there is no side effect. It also has the same obvious curative effect on secondary hyperlipidemia caused by liver and nephropathy, diabetes and fatty liver. Eating oatmeal for a long time is beneficial to the control of diabetes and obesity.
4. buckwheat:
Buckwheat is rich in nutrition. According to the analysis, its grain contains protein 7.94 ~ 17. 15%, fat 2.00 ~ 3.64%, starch 67.45 ~ 79. 15% and cellulose1.04 ~1. Japanese scholars reported that the nutritional potency index of buckwheat was 80 ~ 92 (70 for wheat and 50 for rice).
According to the analysis of the nutritional components of main grains in China by the Institute of Health of China Academy of Medical Sciences, the protein content of buckwheat flour is obviously higher than that of rice, millet, wheat, sorghum, corn flour and Ciba. Buckwheat flour contains 18 kinds of amino acids, and its amino acid composition is similar to that of bean crop protein. The fat content is also higher than that of rice, wheat flour and Ciba. Buckwheat fat contains 9 kinds of fatty acids, among which oleic acid and linoleic acid are the most, accounting for 75% of the total fatty acids, and also contains palmitic acid 19% and linolenic acid 4.8%. In addition, it also contains organic acids such as citric acid, oxalic acid and malic acid. Buckwheat also contains trace elements such as calcium, phosphorus, iron, copper, zinc, selenium, boron, iodine, nickel and cobalt, and various vitamins: vb, vb2, vc, ve, vpp and vp, among which vp (rutin) and chlorophyll are not contained in other cereal crops. The nutritional components of buckwheat seeds vary with varieties and cultivation conditions. These substances play an important role in the physiological metabolism of human body. With the development of modern science and technology, the improvement of people's quality of life and the quality and diversification of food, buckwheat as a healthy food will be favored by people.
