(Hair loss) Adding this grain to your rice helps prevent hair loss.

It's widely known that eating mixed grain rice is healthier than white rice. However, many people struggle to decide which grains will be most beneficial when trying mixed grain rice. Here are three foods that are great to include in your rice recipes.

 

◇Oats

 

Oats are known to be rich in protein, unsaturated fatty acids, and minerals. Oats are 13-20% dietary fiber, of which 4-5% is beta-glucan, a soluble dietary fiber. Beta-glucan lowers LDL cholesterol levels and activates cellular immune function. In fact, according to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), consuming more than 3 grams of beta-glucan per day reduces the risk of heart disease. Oats, which contain more than twice as much protein as rice, are also effective in preventing constipation. Furthermore, avenanthramides in oats are unique to oats among grains and have excellent antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, and are known to be effective in preventing and treating dementia.

◇Sorghum

 

Sorghum is also a grain with excellent antioxidant capacity, generally known to have 37 times the antioxidant capacity of millet. . High antioxidant capacity reduces harmful free radicals, which helps prevent cardiovascular disease. Sorghum is also rich in anthocyanins, which also have the effect of inhibiting the spread of cancer cells. Sorghum also protects intestinal health. In fact, the Rural Development Administration and Professor Kang Hee's team at Kyung Hee University jointly fed sorghum bread and regular wheat bread to mice twice a day for 14 days, and the mice that ate sorghum bread had fewer bacteria that caused intestinal diseases and more beneficial bacteria in the intestines than the mice that ate wheat bread. Eating sorghum with beans can supplement both lipids and protein at the same time.

 

 

◇Gijang

 

Millet helps lower cholesterol levels and promotes cardiovascular health. A joint research team including the International Crops Research Institute for the Semi-Arid Tropics in India, the International Food Policy Research Institute in Malawi, and the University of Reading in the UK analyzed 19 studies conducted on approximately 900 people. The results showed that consuming 50 to 200 grams of millet daily for 21 days to four months reduced total cholesterol levels by 8%. During this period, LDL cholesterol and triglycerides decreased by 10% and 9.5%, respectively, and HDL cholesterol (good cholesterol) increased by 6%. Millet is also effective in improving and preventing hair loss. This is because millet is rich in miliacin, a nutrient that maintains hair health. Miliacin is a type of phytosterol, a type of cholesterol found in plants, and it helps promote the proliferation and metabolic activity of keratinocytes in hair follicle epithelial cells.
