January 18, 2024 is December 8 of the agricultural calendar. This day is the so-called Eight Days of the Bible. The custom of the folk is to eat a bowl of Eight Porridge on this day to celebrate the New Year. The Eight Porridge is also called Buddha porridge, which conveys that Khamuni realized the enlightenment and became a Buddha on the eighth day of the twelfth month of the farm. Therefore, each temple should recite this day, and cook porridge with five grains and fruits to offer it to the Buddha. After a long time, it became a custom and gradually led to the people.

{ The nutritional value of the Chinese medical treatment and the way to nourish the body in winter

The Chinese medical treatment When it is cold in winter, the cake can be replaced by the Chinese medical treatment, which can warm the spleen and stomach. It is a good choice for winter desserts.

Qu Ruiying, a middle-aged doctor at Mackay Hospital, said that from the perspective of Chinese medicine, the Baqian Festival is in the cold winter. The ingredients of the Baqian porridge include glutinous rice, beans, red rice, cinnamon, etc., which is indeed effective in promoting cold and keeping warm and nourishing the spleen and kidneys. It can be said to be a good recipe for nourishing in winter.

The spleen and stomach and spleen are prone to cold in winter. The glutinous rice in the porridge can enhance the spleen and kidneys, and red ginger can nourish the spleen and stomach. Some people have increased their appetite in winter, so they can use pineapple porridge instead of cakes and other desserts, and eat two or three bowls a week.

The glutinous rice in the porridge is not easy to digest compared to white rice, and beans are easy to cause gastrointestinal energy. Qu Ruiying reminds the elderly that if their stomach is not good, glutinous rice can be cooked, and beans can be reduced at the appropriate amount, and the sugar should not be added too much. Only by reducing the possibility of consuming energy and eating healthy.

Qu Ruiying said that since the focus of fertilization in winter is nourishing the kidneys, and the Chinese medicine system says that "the kidneys" are mainly related to reproductive urinary, legs, foot and waist, so in addition to eating porridge, you should also keep warm at the neck, back and waist, etc. In addition, you can soak your feet for about 15 to 20 minutes before going to bed. Women are prone to cold feet. You can also add some mugwort to soak your feet in the water to "warm your feet and warm your whole body."

Adjusting the formula for healthy Porridge can prevent blood sugar from rising

Shiwen, a hospital nutritionist, said that Porridge is made of glutinous rice as the main ingredient. The glutinous rice feels very plump after absorbing water. Generally, at least 8 ingredients will be added when made, such as peanuts, beans, pine nuts, chestnuts, walnut kernels, almonds, seeds, etc., and finally red sugar or white sugar will be added. According to Chinese medicine, the eight porridge of porridge has the effects of strengthening the stomach and spleen, nourishing the air and replenishing blood, and stimulating cold. Cooking into porridge can also aid digestion and is very suitable for eating during the cold season.

Modern people pay attention to raising, and the oil content of walnuts, peanuts and pine nuts is relatively high. If red beans, flower beans, purple rice, and coix seed are replaced, it can significantly reduce the heat and oil. Then replacing sugar with red, cinnamon and raisins will not only greatly reduce the heat, but also increase the intake and flavor of the fruit. Patients with chronic diseases such as diabetes, hypertension, and kidney disease can enjoy a bowl of confidence.

Zhang Shimin reminds that the newly designed healthy porridge is about 390CC, which is a little more than the portion that is usually easy to open. Because it is very thick, it feels very full after eating. The hot amount of one serving is only about 220 calories, which is equivalent to a bowl of 80% white rice plus half a girl's big fruit. Compared with the average canned eight-baca porridge, the heat volume is about 76 calories per 100 grams, which is much lower.

After eating healthy porridge, as long as you eat some vegetables to increase your dietary fiber, it is a very nutritious and full meal. Zhu Shimin reminds that diabetics should control the total heat and portion of staple food when eating. This special Pine Porridge is based on grain type and has a very low heat. If the flavour is not enhanced by red cinnamon, you can also use sugar instead, which not only increases the sweetness, but also prevents blood sugar from rising.
