Nowadays, the probability of suffering from gastric cancer is increasing year by year, and there is still a saying of "ten stomach and nine diseases" in life. As a result, many people like to eat foods that "nourish the stomach", such as glutinous rice.
Traditional Chinese medicine believes that glutinous rice is warm in nature and has the effects of stopping diarrhea, replenishing qi, strengthening the spleen and stomach, and strengthening physical fitness. The glutinous rice mentioned in the "Suishiju Diet Spectrum" says that glutinous rice has the good effects of nourishing lung qi, filling stomach fluid, nourishing middle energy and replenishing qi, and promoting urination.

From the perspective of modern nutrition, especially the glutinous rice that has just been cooked has a higher glycemic index, even higher than ordinary rice.

In addition, if you have weak digestion, you can eat hot glutinous rice in moderation, but cold glutinous rice is not suitable for eating, which will easily lead to reduced secretion of digestive juice and reduced digestive enzyme activity, thereby preventing normal intestines and stomach Physical activity may even hurt the stomach.
For people with normal digestion ability, it is not recommended that you eat glutinous rice every day, because glutinous rice is very sticky and difficult to digest. It is mentioned in "Diet Therapy Materia Medica" that “eating more glutinous rice can help dampness, produce phlegm, and damage the spleen and stomach.” Little babies and the elderly at home should not eat too much at one time, especially glutinous rice delicacies with edible oil, which will be more digestible.
