The content of corn polysaccharide in the water decoction of corn stigma is very high, even as high as about 4%. In fact, in China, there have been many remedies about eating corn to quench your thirst. For example, Lingnan people love to make soup, and there is a kind of soup made of corn beard and lean meat. In some villages in northern China, there is also the habit of soaking corn whiskers in water, and some places use corn whiskers to cook porridge. However, in traditional Chinese medicine, corn stigma is considered as a drug to promote diuresis and reduce swelling. It is a diuretic, and most diabetic patients also have symptoms of excessive urination. At the same time, Chinese medicine believes that "vaginal fluid" includes urine, sweat and other liquids that are yin. If you have excessive diuresis for a long time, you may be suspected of hurting yin. So this medicated diet uses Ligustrum lucidum. Ligustrum lucidum itself is a medicine for nourishing the yin of liver and kidney, clearing away heat and moistening dryness, which can effectively make up for the shortage of corn stigma alone. At the same time, it can fundamentally treat diabetes according to the pathological condition of dryness-heat and yin deficiency of diabetes. Medicated diet for quenching thirst and reducing blood sugar: Yuzhen Jiangtang tea is made of corn stigma 30g, Ligustrum lucidum 30g, chrysanthemum 6g and fresh mulberry 6g. Or 3 grams of dried mulberry leaves. First, shred fresh mulberry leaves, then put chrysanthemum, corn stigma and Ligustrum lucidum into a saucepan, boil it over medium heat, and then cook it over low heat for 25 minutes to get the soup. In this way, the delicious Yuzhen hypoglycemic tea is ready. The function of clearing lung and quenching thirst is to remind this tea that it is slightly cold. If the stomach is not very good, you can add 2 to 3 slices of ginger when making it. In addition, it should be emphasized that medicated diet is only an auxiliary curative effect and cannot replace drugs. When taking drugs, you must use drugs. This medicated diet uses several traditional Chinese medicines, such as corn stigma, Ligustrum lucidum, mulberry leaves and chrysanthemum, all of which have the same effect. Mainly through the hypoglycemic effect of corn stigma, Ligustrum lucidum and mulberry leaves, this beverage can play an auxiliary role in the treatment of diabetes. At the same time, Ligustrum lucidum was used to inhibit the diuretic effect of corn stigma. In addition, Ligustrum lucidum, mulberry leaves and chrysanthemum have particularly good eyesight improving effects. As we all know, eye injury is also one of the main complications of diabetes.
