Pumpkin barley bone soup
Overview
Many people deal with computers all day long, which inevitably causes visual fatigue. To maintain eye health, in addition to eye hygiene, eating more foods rich in vitamin A, such as pumpkin, can effectively protect your eyes. The pectin in pumpkin can also regulate the absorption rate of food in the stomach and slow down the absorption of sugar. The soluble fiber can delay the emptying of food in the stomach and control the rise in blood sugar after meals. Pectin can also combine with excess cholesterol in the body, reducing cholesterol absorption and lowering blood cholesterol concentration. Therefore, pumpkin has the reputation of being a good product for lowering blood sugar and fat. People with diabetes often take this product with meals. It can not only satisfy their hunger, but also lower blood sugar and fat. It can be said that it kills several birds with one stone. Barley can strengthen muscles and bones, strengthen the spleen and stomach, eliminate edema, remove rheumatism, and clear away lung heat. It is rich in nutrients.

Whether used for nourishing or treating diseases, the effect is relatively mild, slightly cold but not harmful to the stomach, and beneficial to the spleen but not greasy. Barley is a very good tonic for women. A large amount of vitamin B1 can make the skin smooth and whiten, and can also play an anti-uterine cancer role.
