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 …
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 now, at least five or six out of ten people 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.
Dampness is the root of all kinds of chronic incurable diseases in modern times, and Coix seed and red bean soup is a good medicine for treating dampness. I usually give patients a prescription and always tell them some precautions in their diet and daily life, among which the most common thing is to go back and drink the barley and red bean soup as tea. For patients who don't have this condition, I will let him cook porridge with barley and red beans as the staple food for dinner.
Someone 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.
Besides red bean glutinous rice porridge, you can learn more about the nature and taste of various foods, add and subtract by yourself, and form more dietary prescriptions suitable for your physique. Only in this way can food really become a good health care product.
