New Year’s Day passed, we sent away the 21st century decade, ushered in the year 2020, a time that used to exist only in science fiction, no end of the world, no aliens, in the laughter of the sky fireworks, we opened a new future. In the first working day of 2020, have you had your congee? Whether it is green vegetable porridge, egg porridge or skinny egg and lean meat porridge, it has been regarded as a must-have food during weight loss because it is warm and nourishes the stomach. So, how to drink porridge is the most nutritious? Is it really possible to lose weight by drinking congee? Congee has more water, usually up to 80% of the total volume, and the combination of water and starch stays in the digestive tract for a long time, which can help the water stay in the body longer and is also more conducive to absorption. And no matter what porridge calories are low, compared with other staple foods, when eating the same volume of food, choose to drink porridge intake of calories is relatively low, which is conducive to control the total calories of the meal does not exceed the standard, so as to achieve the effect of weight control. Finally drinking porridge can also nourish the stomach, we say in Chinese medicine that porridge can nourish the spleen and stomach, this is because when the stomach and intestines are not comfortable, porridge is easier to digest, will not bring too much burden on the stomach and intestines, to create more recovery and rest time for the stomach and intestines. So many benefits of drinking porridge, so drinking porridge must be beneficial and harmless? Three meals a day are drinking porridge will not lose weight? Slowly, allow me to slowly say. Although the calories of porridge is very low, but the corresponding is that drinking porridge brings a sense of satiety for a short period of time, because a bowl of porridge is mostly water, although easy to fill the stomach, but the water will soon be discharged, and because porridge is easy to digest, easy to absorb, the impact on blood sugar is also greater, not long you will feel hungry. Then is the light drinking porridge will cause malnutrition, a bowl of porridge is still mostly coarse grains and water, compared to the meat and vegetables with the main meal, long-term will make the body nutrient deficient, resulting in hair loss and other malnutrition reactions. Therefore, drinking porridge can indeed lose weight, but it will also have an unhealthy impact on the body, once the normal diet is restored, the weight will immediately rebound back, drinking porridge is not a long-term effective weight loss method. Then in the cold winter, with the family to drink a bowl of steaming porridge, so that the warmth washed away the fishy oil of the past, warm stomach more warm heart.
