Sea rice is a subspecies of marine bacteria (zooglei), which stick together to form colonies that look like boiled rice grains. These mucous formations have long been used in oriental medicine. In India and Tibet, Japan and China, sea rice is used for the prevention and treatment of many diseases. Since zoogley can live only in a liquid environment, the name "marine" was probably given from these considerations.
A detailed scientific substantiation of the healing properties of sea rice does not yet exist, only the composition of the drink from it is known, which is obtained on the basis of fermentation by adding sugar. I must say that the drink is quite complex: it includes esters, organic acids. It also contains enzymes: lipase, levansacharase, protease, amylase, alcohols, aldehydes. This drink contains many vitamins necessary for normal human life, fatty and resinous substances.
The presence of such an enzyme as lipase in the fermented sugar infusion of sea rice determines its fat-breaking properties. Taking it inside helps to replenish the natural reserves of lipase, because its production in the body decreases over the years. Losing excess weight in itself leads to a decrease in the risk of many diseases and getting rid of them. Drinking sea rice drink helps to lower blood cholesterol, lower blood pressure, and restore normal metabolism. To reduce weight, it is enough to drink 100 g of the drink before meals 2-3 times a day.
Organic acids are very useful, which are also included in the fermentation products of sea rice. For example, P-coumaric, chlorogenic and folic acids are excellent antioxidants, they help slow down the aging process and protect against the development of cancer. Glucuronic acid is necessary for those who have joint and spine damage as a result of the disease.
Infusion of sea rice is useful for diseases such as diabetes mellitus, upper respiratory tract diseases, clogged mucous membranes of the gastrointestinal tract, purulent skin diseases. It is used to normalize blood pressure, relieve headaches and prevent cancer.
