Although porridge is good, it is not omnipotent, especially to put an end to the following misunderstandings.

You can't always drink porridge for three meals. Eating porridge properly is really good, but you can't drink it suddenly. Porridge is a liquid food, which is worse in nutrition than rice with the same volume. And porridge is "not full". I felt full when I ate, but I was hungry again soon. In the long run, the elderly will be malnourished due to insufficient energy and nutrition intake.

Ice porridge is not advisable. Ice porridge is a hot food in summer, but it is not suitable for the elderly and children who have a cold and are weak. Drinking too much ice porridge may affect gastrointestinal function.

People with bad stomachs should drink less. Many people think porridge nourishes the stomach. But in fact, this view is not comprehensive. Because you don't have to chew porridge carefully, you can't promote the secretion of substances that can help digestion in the oral salivary glands; Moreover, porridge with high water content will dilute gastric acid after entering the stomach, making the stomach move slowly, which is also not conducive to digestion.
