What causes some people to put some salt when cooking corn?

Bian Xiao likes eating corn very much, especially at home in Bian Xiao. Corn is planted every year. When the corn is just ripe, it is very tender. Even if you eat it with water, it's good. But every time I cook corn, I will see my parents choose to put some salt or baking soda in it. So, why?

Why do you put salt in cooking corn? In fact, you can find that if you only cook corn in water, it may make the taste of corn a bit monotonous. Adding some salt will make corn have a unique flavor and be sweeter. So every time adults or some hotels cook corn, they will add some edible salt. Then Bian Xiao just said that some people will add some baking soda when cooking corn, because corn contains some hydrochloric acid, which is also a harmful substance and will have a certain impact on the body, so adding some salt or baking soda can completely release hydrochloric acid.

The efficacy and function of corn are well known. Corn is coarse grain, so it can help people lose weight. People who lose weight can eat more corn. Corn is a coarse grain, which can strengthen the spleen, stimulate appetite, lower cholesterol, and stimulate gastrointestinal function, so that everyone can solve constipation. And before cooking corn, Bian Xiao suggested that it is best to wash the corn first, so that you can drink boiled corn water directly at last. Boiled corn water also plays a great role in lowering blood pressure, relieving patients with gallstones, fatty liver and diabetes, and reducing the formation of spots and senile plaques.

The disadvantages of eating corn If you eat corn for a long time, it may lead to a decline in digestive function. Therefore, if your stomach is not particularly good, you should eat less corn. Many sweet corn have high sugar content and are not suitable for diabetics. Just now, Bian Xiao said that it is suitable for diabetics. Eating some old corn is more suitable for them. If everyone eats sweet corn, that's best.
