What is the nutritional value of sticky millet in Northeast China?

Tanida Meng (advocate of natural cereal food) replied:

A common traditional food in Northeast China is sticky millet, which is a special food mixed with millet and glutinous rice. The following is the nutritional value of sticky millet.

1. Carbohydrate

Sticky millet mainly contains carbohydrates, which is the main source of human energy. Because glutinous rice contains more starch, it can maintain energy for a long time after eating, which can not only increase exercise endurance, but also reduce discomfort on an empty stomach.

2. Cellulose

Sticky millet is also rich in dietary fiber, which is conducive to promoting intestinal peristalsis and preventing intestinal problems such as constipation and uric acid stones.

3. protein

Viscous millet contains a small amount of protein and essential amino acids, which is an important component of human cells and tissues.

4. Minerals and vitamins

Glutinous rice is rich in trace elements such as zinc, copper, iron, manganese, selenium and THP. Vitamin B 1 can help the human body absorb nutrients, regulate the body's metabolic function, and maintain blood and psychological balance. Zinc can promote the immune system and enhance human immunity.

Generally speaking, sticky millet contains complementary nutrients, which is beneficial to human health. Although a small amount of oil is used in the production of sticky millet, its heat energy is high and it is not suitable for people who want to lose weight. But for others, eating a little sticky rice roll or replacing snacks with sticky millet every day after meals is a nutritious and healthy choice!

The above is the answer of Gu Tianmeng, an advocate of natural cereal food, hoping to help everyone.
