Traditional Chinese medicine believes that sorghum promotes digestion, facilitates urination, relieves coughs and asthma, replenishes qi and clears the stomach. Young and middle-aged people with "sub-health" symptoms such as indigestion, weak constitution, high work pressure, and mental stress can often eat some sorghum. .

Young and middle-aged people who like cooking can try making "sorghum, black beans and jujube rice", choosing 50 grams of sorghum, 20 grams of black beans, 10 jujubes, and 10 grams of white sugar. Since both sorghum and black beans have "rough skin and thick flesh", it is best to soak them for four to five hours in advance, then steam the raw materials before eating.
