Porridge cooked from one grain should not be eaten daily, experts say.
Doctors told the E1.RU portal about the beneficial and harmful properties of cereals popular with Russians. It turns out that many cereals that contain trace elements valuable for health and are considered beneficial are not suitable for daily consumption.
Corn. due to the fact that it is an allergenic product that can cause the appearance of dysfunctional symptoms. In addition, corn porridge has a high GI (glycemic index), that is, after eating it, the glucose content in the blood increases sharply. People with prediabetes and diabetes should not eat this porridge.
Millet.Millet contains compounds that prevent iodine metabolism. For this reason, millet porridge should not be present in the daily diet, as well as in the diet of people who have problems with thyroid hormone deficiency (hypothyroidism). With increased acidity of the stomach or with existing gastritis, an ulcer, millet porridge can also make you feel worse.
Rice.Freshly cooked white, dehulled rice is a rich source of easily digestible carbohydrates that quickly raise blood sugar levels. Eating rice porridge can harm diabetics and overweight people – eating it regularly will only exacerbate their problems. In addition, often eaten white rice increases the risk of kidney stones.
Oatmeal. Oats contain phytic acid, which has the ability to slow down the absorption of calcium. If you eat oatmeal every day, it is fraught with a decrease in the content of a trace element necessary for healthy bones and developed muscles. As a result, the risk of osteoporosis increases.

Semolina. Such porridge is devoid of fiber, that is, the absorption of nutrients from it occurs very quickly. Since these are mainly carbohydrates, after eating semolina, the level of sugar in the blood rises sharply. If it is consumed frequently, the consequence is a set of extra pounds and the formation of insulin resistance – a disorder leading to the development of type 2 diabetes. In addition, semolina porridge, which was cooked in milk, prevents the normal absorption of iron.
