Chinese medicine believes that oats are sweet and flat, and can cure sweating. Reducing blood fat, preventing cancer, resisting high blood viscosity and platelet aggregation, and controlling obesity. Compared with other cereals, oats have anti-lipid components, high water-soluble colloids and protein with balanced nutrition, which is of great value for improving human health. The contents of protein and fat in naked oats are the highest in cereals (see table), especially the contents of eight amino acids essential for human body in protein are basically the highest. In particular, it is worth mentioning that the content of lysine with the functions of increasing intelligence and strengthening bones is more than twice that of rice and wheat flour. Tryptophan to prevent anemia and hair loss is also higher than rice and wheat flour. Fat content is particularly rich, and it is rich in a lot of unsaturated fatty acids. According to the analysis results of the analysis center of China Academy of Agricultural Sciences, the linoleic acid content in naked oats accounts for 38. 1%~52.0% of the total fat. 50g naked oats are equivalent to the main components of 10~ 15 pills, Yishouning and Maitong. Oleic acid accounts for 30%~40% of unsaturated fatty acids. The released heat and calcium content are also higher than other grains. In addition, phosphorus, iron and vitamin B2 are also abundant. Oats also contain saponins that are not found in other cereals, which can be combined with plant fibers to absorb bile acids, promote the conversion of cholesterol in the liver into bile acids to be excreted with feces, and indirectly reduce serum cholesterol, so oats are known as health food.
