Nutritional value of corn
1. High available energy.
The metabolic energy of corn is 14.06MJ/kg, and the highest can reach 15.06MJ/kg, which is the highest among cereal feeds. This is mainly due to the fact that there is very little crude fiber in corn, only 2. The nitrogen-free leachate is as high as 72, and the digestibility can reach 90. Corn, on the other hand, has a high crude fat content, ranging from 3.5 to 4.5. Corn is an annual grass plant, also known as bract, cob, six-corn, etc. According to research, every 100 grams of corn contains 106 kcal of calories, 2.9 grams of fiber, 4.0 grams of protein, 1.2 grams of fat, 22.8 grams of carbohydrates, and also contains mineral elements and vitamins. The crude fiber contained in corn is 4-10 times higher than that of polished rice and flour. Corn also contains a large amount of magnesium, which can strengthen the peristalsis of the intestinal wall and promote the excretion of waste from the body. The above-mentioned ingredients and functions of corn are very beneficial to weight loss. The flower ears and corn silk when corn is mature have a diuretic effect and are also beneficial to weight loss. Corn can be boiled into soup instead of tea, or it can be crushed and made into corn flour, corn cakes, etc. The puffed popcorn is very large in size and can eliminate the hunger of obese people after eating. However, it contains very low calories after eating. It is also one of the substitutes for weight loss.
2. The content of linoleic acid is high.
The linoleic acid content of corn reaches 2, which is the highest content among cereal feeds. If the proportion of corn in the diet reaches more than 50%, corn alone can meet the needs of pigs and chickens for linoleic acid (1).
3. Protein
The content is low and the quality is poor. The protein content of corn is about 8 or 6, and the amino acids are unbalanced, with insufficient amounts of lysine, tryptophan and methionine.
4. Minerals
About 80% of minerals are present in the embryo, and the calcium content is very small, about 0.02%. Phosphorus contains about 0.25%, but about 63% of it is in the form of phytate phosphorus, and the utilization rate of monogastric animals is very low. The content of other mineral elements is also low.
