Sweet Corn: improves health and is suitable for all ages

In 2012, the total output of global corn (maize) was 0.69 billion tons, the United States accounted for 40%, and China accounted for 30%. Sweet Corn (sweet maize) is a type of corn that has long existed.

The nutritional value of sweet corn is very high. Each 100 grams of energy is 86 thousand calories, 19 grams of carbohydrate, 3.2 grams of sugar, 2.7 grams of edible fiber, 1.2 grams of fat and other trace nutrients.

In fact, sweet corn contains more sugar and less starch. During maturity, the surface of sweet corn grains is reduced due to moisture evaporation, Which is translucent and easy to be recognized manually. In China, with the continuous improvement of people's living standard, sweet corn has been widely planted throughout the country.

Corn Varieties (not sweet corn) that contain many starch have long been cultivated in China. If the grain quality is good, the corn can be used as food ingredients, such as staple food and cakes.

Why is it better for all ages to eat sweet corn? Why is sweet corn so rich in nutrients? The main reason is that the genetic DNA of sweet corn is working, ensuring the proportion of nutrients in the grain. The second is the nitrogen-fixing effect of the fungi of maize, which makes the grain of sweet corn full of nitrogen element. This is incomparable to wheat and wheat.

In fact, according to relevant statistics, global corn production is higher than that of wheat and rice, and is the most important food source for humans. In the United States, the drug-resistant transgenic corn accounted for more than 86%, and China only accounted for about 30%. Some people say that they do not eat GM food.

Note: During the 1968-72 period, I planted nearly acres of old corn in the "five-seven-Primary Schools" of the Northern Wilderness. After the rain, the weather is fine and the corn grows fast. As long as you sit next to the corn field and listen around quietly with your ears, you will be able to vaguely hear the sound of the corn stalk in the continuous pull-up of the Keba and Keba. It's amazing!
