It is said that millet oil is better than Rehmannia glutinosa. After cooking yellow millet porridge, a layer of rice oil floats to the surface, commonly known as rice soup oil. Wang Shixiong, a Qing Dynasty doctor, once said that “rice oil can replace ginseng soup”. Yellow millet is also known as health rice and baby rice. It is suitable for regular drinking during confinement, as a supplementary food for children, as a dietary supplement for students, and as a dietary therapy for the elderly!
Yellow millet is said to be “good for the stomach and intestines and the best dietary secret”. With the arrival of summer, problems such as loss of appetite, fatigue and gastrointestinal discomfort also appear.

This is why stomach nourishment has become an essential part of summer health maintenance. At this time, you can drink a bowl of millet porridge in the morning or evening, and your stomach will be warm and more comfortable!
