The efficacy and function of spleen-nourishing porridge

1. Protect blood vessels

In the cold winter, cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases are prone to occur frequently. Drinking a bowl of grain porridge every day can help protect blood vessels. Grains with red, purple and black skin are good sources of anthocyanins, and barley and oats are rich in tail glucan. These substances are beneficial for preventing coronary heart disease, helping to control blood cholesterol and protecting blood vessels.

2. Stabilize blood sugar

In winter, blood sugar levels are higher in Bupi Congee, while multi-grain congee has a positive effect on regulating blood sugar after meals. This is because multi-grain congee contains more dietary fiber and minerals, which helps control blood sugar. In addition, eating multi-grain beans requires chewing, which is slow to digest, so blood sugar after meals is lower.
