The role and efficacy of corn and the efficacy of corn wine

Everyone knows that corn is one of the common grains in our lives. Corn is rich in various vitamins and amino acids needed by the human body. So what are the functions of corn? What are the benefits of corn wine?

The role of corn

Corn is also known as maize, corn, corn, cob, maize, corn, pearl rice, etc. In ancient times, it was called imperial wheat, six grains, and western wheat. Originally from Mexico and Peru, it was introduced to China around the 16th century. It is cultivated all over the country, mainly produced in Heilongjiang, Jilin, Liaoning, Inner Mongolia, Hebei, Shandong and other places. It is known as the world's three major crops along with rice and wheat, and is recognized as a "golden crop" worldwide.

Corn contains selenium and magnesium, which can accelerate the decomposition of peroxides in the body and inhibit the growth of cancer cells. Corn also contains more cellulose, which can promote gastrointestinal motility, shorten the residence time of food residues in the intestines, and excrete harmful substances from the body as soon as possible to prevent rectal cancer. Corn is rich in vitamin C, carotene, lysine, and linoleic acid. It has comprehensive anti-cancer properties, can inhibit tumors caused by chemical carcinogens, and has anti-aging effects on the human body. Corn oil, linoleic acid, lecithin, vitamins A and E, etc. in corn are easily absorbed by the human body. Regular consumption of corn oil can lower blood cholesterol and soften arteries, and can prevent and treat arteriosclerosis, coronary heart disease, hyperlipidemia, fatty liver, and obesity. Drinking water boiled with corn silk can treat gallstones, cholecystitis, diabetes, and urinary problems. Long-term consumption of corn can enhance human physical strength and endurance, stimulate gastrointestinal motility, and accelerate fecal excretion. It can prevent and treat diseases such as constipation, enteritis, and intestinal cancer.

The effects of corn wine: regulate the appetite, lower blood lipids and promote bile secretion. It is mainly used to treat spleen and stomach weakness, gastritis, constipation, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, cholecystitis, and prevent and treat colorectal cancer.

Corn wine may protect against heart disease and cancer

In a study that lasted more than a year, experts compared various indicators of nutritional value and health benefits of various staple foods such as corn, rice, and wheat. The results showed that the vitamin content in corn is very high, 5-10 times that of rice and wheat.

At the same time, experts were also surprised by the large amount of nutritional and health-care substances contained in corn. In addition to carbohydrates, protein, fat, and carotene, corn also contains nutrients such as riboflavin and vitamins. These substances are very beneficial in preventing diseases such as heart disease and cancer.

The study also showed that the nutritional value of specialty corn is higher than that of ordinary corn. For example, the protein, vegetable oil and vitamin content of sweet corn is 1-2 times higher than that of ordinary corn; the content of "life element" selenium is 8-10 times higher; and among the 17 amino acids it contains, 13 are higher than those in ordinary corn. In addition, the moisture, active ingredients, vitamins and other nutrients of fresh corn are much higher than those of mature corn, because the nutrient content of corn will drop rapidly during storage.
