Professor Zhang Hude from the Health Department of Beijing University of Chinese Medicine pointed out that millet contains a variety of vitamins, amino acids, fats and carbohydrates, and has high nutritional value.

Carotene is not contained in ordinary grains, but millet contains 0.12 mg per 100 grams, and the vitamin B1 content ranks first among all grains.
Millet is also very high in sugar, with 72.8 grams of sugar per 100 grams, and its caloric output is much higher than that of rice.

If there is an appetizing taste, it should be the taste of your favorite food. Not everyone can accept Hua Mei Shan Cha. Poor appetite and reduced digestive function can be improved by the following appetizing foods.

Drinking a cup of pineapple and apple juice can not only whet your appetite with the help of rich enzymes, but also supplement vitamin C. Drinking a cup every day can help whet your appetite.
It should be noted that it is best to drink it freshly squeezed by yourself.
White radish kimchi also has an appetizing effect. Among all vegetables, white radish has a great effect on eliminating bloating.
When making radish kimchi, wash the radish without peeling it, use young ginger, and add cucumber to make kimchi. Eating some in summer is refreshing and helps to stimulate the appetite.
Four types of food can help you whet your appetite. Lian Shulan The following four types of food can help you whet your appetite.
Sour Foods Eat sour foods, such as tomatoes, lemons, strawberries, plums, grapes, hawthorns, pineapples, mangos, kiwis, etc. Their sour taste can astringent sweat, stop diarrhea and remove dampness, and can prevent excessive sweating and gas consumption and yin damage.
It can also produce fluid, quench thirst, strengthen the stomach and eliminate food.
Bitter foods Bitter foods contain amino acids, vitamins, alkaloids, glycosides, trace elements, etc., which have many medical and health functions such as antibacterial and anti-inflammatory, antipyretic and heat-removing, refreshing, and fatigue-relieving functions.
Common "bitter" foods include bitter melon, dandelion, beer, tea, coffee, chocolate, cocoa, etc. However, it should be noted that bitter foods should not be consumed in excess at one time. Excessive bitterness can easily cause nausea, vomiting, stomach upset and other uncomfortable reactions.
Potassium-rich foods: Excessive sweating can take away a large amount of potassium, causing excessive loss of potassium ions in the body, causing hypokalemia, causing fatigue, dizziness, headaches, poor appetite, lack of energy and other symptoms.
The most effective way to prevent potassium deficiency in hot weather is to eat more potassium-containing foods, such as strawberries, peaches, spinach, potatoes, green onions, celery, edamame, etc.
The potassium content in tea is particularly high, accounting for about 1.5%. Drinking more tea in summer can not only relieve the heat, but also supplement potassium, which can be said to kill two birds with one stone.
Foods that are good for the Qi. In addition to relaxing, stretching, and adjusting mentally and psychologically, it is especially important to choose food that is good for the Qi and delicious.
For example, radish, beer, roses, lotus root, fennel, hawthorn, orange, etc.
