What are the Benefits and Effects of Brown Rice Tea?

Nowadays, in order to maintain good health, more and more people are beginning to notice the nutritional value of whole grains. Even many people choose to replace white rice with brown rice. Although brown rice has a poorer taste, it retains more nutritional value. For some diabetics, brown rice can even help lower blood sugar levels. In daily life, apart from eating brown rice, people can also make brown rice tea to drink. Brown rice tea is a natural health food treasure, containing over 40 kinds of complex vitamins and minerals, providing 70% of the basic nutrients for the human body, enhancing the absorption function of the digestive system, reducing blood lipids and cholesterol, preventing hypertension, and promoting health through regular consumption.

Brown rice tea can promote the "three passages" in the body. For good health, it is essential to maintain smooth function in the body's metabolism, which includes smooth blood flow, urination, and bowel movements. Drinking brown rice tea and eating brown rice regularly can achieve this effect.

1. Brown rice has excellent therapeutic effects for patients with obesity and gastrointestinal dysfunction. Eating brown rice is particularly beneficial for diabetics and obese individuals. Since the carbohydrates in brown rice are wrapped in coarse fiber tissue, the human body absorbs and digests it slowly, effectively controlling blood sugar levels. Additionally, the trace elements in brown rice help improve insulin sensitivity, providing assistance to individuals with impaired glucose tolerance. Studies in Japan have proven that brown rice has a much lower glycemic index than white rice, providing a stronger sense of satiety when eaten in the same quantity, which is conducive to controlling food intake and assisting obese individuals in losing weight.

2. Eating more brown rice and vegetables can prevent allergies. A considerable number of children are plagued by allergic diseases such as dermatitis and eczema. Research has found that these children are susceptible to dermatitis due to improper food choices, such as a preference for meat, dairy, and egg-based foods, which can lead to a decrease in the quality of red blood cells and a lack of vitality. The human body composed of such low-quality red blood cells has greatly weakened natural adaptability and assimilative capacity. Additionally, the protein molecules from milk and eggs can easily penetrate the intestinal wall into the bloodstream, forming allergic toxins such as histamine and hydroxytryptamine, which stimulate the body to produce allergic reactions and lead to illness. In contrast, brown rice and vegetables supply red blood cells with strong vitality and do not introduce foreign proteins into the bloodstream, thus preventing the occurrence of the aforementioned allergic skin diseases.

1. The physiological time of the human body is from 1:00 pm to 5:00 pm, when the blood flows to the small intestine and bladder. Drinking brown rice tea during this time can help the small intestine absorb and eliminate excess water and waste, assist the bladder in generating tension, and promote urination.

2. Diabetic patients can drink brown rice tea on an empty stomach in the morning (as blood sugar levels tend to rise in the morning).

3. Drinking vegetable soup after dinner in the evening can help alkalize the body.
