Fresh corn contains a large amount of natural vitamin E, which can promote cell division, delay cell aging, lower serum cholesterol, prevent skin lesions, and can also reduce the symptoms of arteriosclerosis and brain function decline.

The vitamin A in fresh corn also has certain auxiliary effects on the prevention and treatment of dry eye, tracheitis, dry skin and nerve paralysis, which are common in middle-aged and elderly people. Fresh corn is rich in lysine (very little in dry corn), which is an essential nutrient for the human body. Studies have found that eating more fresh corn can also inhibit the side effects of anti-cancer drugs on the human body. The cellulose in fresh corn is both abundant and long, and its amount is 6 to 8 times that of polished rice and flour. Fiber can make the stool smooth, so eating corn regularly can prevent constipation and hemorrhoids, and can also reduce the occurrence of gastrointestinal diseases. At the same time, it is also beneficial to preventing rectal cancer, arteriosclerosis, and lowering cholesterol.
