Nutritional value of germ rice
Germ rice is rice containing germ, which accounts for 3% of the weight of rice. Generally, rice has no germ after repeated grinding, but the germ is 60%-80% more nutritious than the rice we usually eat. Germ rice is a god-given nutrient source for human beings and a natural nutrient base for microorganisms. Contains a variety of vitamins, high-quality fat, protein, etc.
Efficacy and function of germ rice
Brain strengthening: ① Germ rice is rich in zinc, which can stimulate the pituitary gland and promote the normal development of the baby's brain. Supplemented with taurine, choline can effectively help the metabolism of brain cells, make nutrients directly enter the brain through the meninges, and supplement and strengthen the brain.
② VB 1 in germ rice has a good effect on people with poor memory, inattention, anxiety, fatigue, dizziness when standing up, and asthma when climbing stairs.
Detoxification: Germ rice is rich in VB and VE, which can promote the decomposition and excretion of poisons (food additives, pesticides, etc.). ) in the human body.
Therapeutic effect on allergic reaction and diabetes: VB (rich in B2, B6 and nicotinic acid) in germ rice is very effective for allergic reaction and allergic constitution caused by eating crab, shrimp, eggs and milk. Among them, B6 can assist in the synthesis of amino acids (which are necessary for the pancreas to produce insulin), so VB6 can promote the production of insulin in the body and is effective for diabetes.
Improve reproductive function: the interaction between ve and zinc in germ rice can improve reproductive function, prevent infertility, prevent premature delivery and abortion, and is effective for impotence.
The best staple food for patients with stroke, heart disease, hypertension and arteriosclerosis: VE in germ rice can make body tissues and visceral cells metabolize vigorously, and prevent stroke, heart disease, hypertension and arteriosclerosis. However, insufficient VB 1 in the body will make sugar metabolism inactive, leading to waste storage in the heart, leading to cardiac hypertrophy and becoming a hidden danger of hypertension and arteriosclerosis.
Cancer prevention: VE in germ rice can prevent the generation of representative carcinogen (nitrite). VC, together with VA and VD, can remove the harmful substances accumulated in the body-lipid peroxide, strengthen collagen and prevent the proliferation of cancer cells. Brown rice enzyme can inhibit the growth of cancer cells.
Does white rice have germ?
Does polished white rice in the market contain germ? The answer is almost none. This is because the germ is soft and tough, and endosperm is very easy to separate and mix with bran during processing. So ordinary white rice can hardly see germ.
