Porridge is a fairly common dish on the menu of an ordinary person who monitors their health. Each species has its own beneficial properties that have a positive effect on the functioning of the body.
First of all, the beneficial properties of porridge are that it contains a large amount of fiber and organic matter. Almost all types of cereals are beneficial for the body if consumed at the right time. In some cases, medical approval is required, since each organism individually reacts to certain dishes.
The most useful cereals are those that have a positive effect on the organs and systems of the body. In the first place, you can put buckwheat porridge, the composition of which is quite rich. Its benefit lies in the normalization of the pancreas and liver due to the iron content. Also, its qualities were appreciated by lovers of low-calorie food, which is quite well absorbed by the body. Of course, the best option is to steam the cereal with boiling water, since in this case all the useful properties of the porridge are preserved, which does not mean cooking.
Not inferior in quality to buckwheat and rice. The most useful is brown, which helps to relieve the intoxication of the body after poisoning with chemicals (arsenic, lead, etc.). These are healthy cereals if you follow the cooking technology. To speed up the cooking time, it is necessary to thoroughly rinse the cereals in running water to wash out the excess starch. It should be noted that rice porridge is the prevention of cancer. It is also part of the necessary diet for people suffering from diseases of the gastrointestinal tract. But with caution, people with constipation should be used, since rice porridge has a fixing effect.
You don't even need to think about whether porridge is good for you. Oatmeal is considered the first complementary food for infants, as it is rich not only in fats, but also in vegetable proteins. Also, such useful cereals are a source of trace elements, without which normal growth and development of a child is impossible (sodium, phosphorus, calcium, iron, vitamins). This dish stabilizes the work of the digestive system, is used as a restorative agent after diseases and operations, as it causes minimal harm to the body. A peculiar consistency envelops the walls of the stomach and fills the body with strength.
The next type is useful millet cereals, which effectively strengthen tissues due to the content of copper, silicon, iron, fluorine and other substances. Copper affects the elasticity of the skin and tissues, fluoride is necessary for the normal formation of teeth, iron for normal blood circulation in the body, etc.
The largest amount of fluoride is found in pearl barley porridge, which is neglected by many. But in vain. After all, this element significantly increases the speed and strength of muscle contractions, which are so necessary for manual workers and athletes. A peculiarity of cooking is the duration of cooking, but you can speed up the process if you pre-soak the cereals for several hours in cold water.
Thus, the regular use of various types of cereals leads to the fact that the human body receives all the necessary substances and a complex of vitamins for normal development and vigorous activity. Experienced housewives know that cereals can become not only an independent dish for baby food, but also served as a side dish with various additives. The most common combinations are considered to be cereals with mushrooms, vegetables, sauerkraut, dried fruits, nuts, etc. It all depends on the individual characteristics and taste preferences of a person.
