　　drink porridge healthy Maintain health, but when cooking a bowl of health-preserving porridge, you should pay attention to the following issues:。

　　Keeping warm for a long time will cause loss of B vitamins

　　Question: Most of the porridge in porridge restaurants is prepared with white porridge. Boil a lot of white porridge, then put it in a pot to keep it warm, waiting for the arrival of customers at any time, and then mix the white porridge with the corresponding ingredients. Porridge that has been kept warm for several hours will definitely suffer a greater loss of vitamins. In order to speed up the porridge cooking, some stores will add alkali when cooking porridge to promote the disintegration of starch granules, which will make the loss of B vitamins even more severe.

　　Tip: Try to choose cereal porridge, because cereals are rich in B vitamins. Even if there is a loss, there will still be some due to the large base. In addition, B vitamins are also widely found in foods such as beans, meat, milk, and eggs. When drinking porridge, it can be appropriately paired with some side dishes of beans, or fried eggs and other foods.

　　A bowl of salty porridge 3 grams of salt

　　Question: Porridge is roughly divided into two styles: northern and southern. In the north, they eat multigrain porridge or bean porridge, without adding salt. It is up to you to decide whether to add sugar. The porridge in the south is basically salty porridge, with various fish, meat and eggs added as ingredients. The porridge in the north is healthier, with neither oil nor salt. Even if the vitamins are lost, it can at least provide more dietary fiber and minerals, such as red bean porridge, mung bean porridge, eight-treasure porridge, barley porridge, five-nut porridge, etc. The porridge in the South is added with salt and even MSG. Calculated based on 300 grams of a bowl of porridge, there are 3 grams of salt in a bowl of porridge, which is not suitable for patients with high blood pressure.

　　Tip: If you are not a diabetic, you can choose some ordinary cereal porridge or sweet porridge, or after ordering porridge, ask the porridge restaurant not to add salt or sugar. If you must drink salty porridge, pay attention to pairing it with light-flavored staple foods and side dishes.

　　Ingredients are not fresh

　　Question: The most important thing when cooking porridge is good raw materials, especially grain raw materials, which can give the porridge a natural aroma. However, when eating porridge in a porridge restaurant, you often feel that the ingredients are not fresh enough. This is because various cereals contain cereal germs, which contain unsaturated fatty acids and lipoxygenase, which are at risk of fat oxidation, are not very resistant to aging, and are prone to produce a stale stale smell.

　　Tips: Lotus seed porridge, barley porridge, and nut porridge are most likely to have these problems, so be careful when ordering these porridges. If the food tastes stale, be sure to report it to the store in time.

　　Ice porridge can hurt your stomach

　　Question: Ice porridge, like other cold foods, may promote the contraction of gastrointestinal blood vessels and affect digestion and absorption.

　　Tips: Don’t drink a large bowl of sweet ice porridge just for the sake of coolness. It’s better to drink warm porridge.

　　99 warm reminder from enthusiastic doctors Spring is a good season for drinking porridge. You need to control the time when cooking porridge. You can add more ingredients to make the nutrition more balanced. Drink less ice porridge when the weather is hot.
