Useful properties of semolina

Semolina is quickly boiled down, well absorbed,
contains a minimum amount of fiber (0,2%). Liquid
semolina is included in diets prescribed for diseases
gastrointestinal tract and after stomach surgery
and intestines.

Semolina is the only cereal that is digested
in the lower intestine and only there is absorbed into
its walls. It fills the body with strength, is beautiful
a remedy for the treatment of all diseases of the stomach. Semolina is
a good remedy for all intestinal diseases, cleanses
the body removes mucus and removes fat.

Semolina is low in fiber, but rich in fiber
vegetable protein and starch. At the same time, the content
vitamins and minerals in this cereal significantly
lower than others.

Semolina contains a lot of gluten. This protein is also called
gluten. Many people are gluten intolerant, it causes
they have celiac disease – a severe hereditary disease that occurs
about one in 800 Europeans. Influenced by gluten
in celiac patients, the intestinal mucosa becomes thinner
and the absorption of all nutrients is impaired, especially
fat. Gluten can cause allergies. It also manifests itself
upset stool.

Semolina contains phytin, and phytin contains phosphorus,
which binds calcium salts and prevents them from entering
into the blood. The level of calcium salts in the blood of a person should be constant – approximately
10 mg per 100 ml of serum. As soon as the salt becomes
less, the parathyroid glands “seize” them
made of bones. It turns out that semolina deprives them of calcium.
Therefore, children who are heavily fed with semolina (according to
2-3 servings a day), often get sick with rickets and spasmophilia.
Other cereals also bind calcium, but to a lesser extent,
than semolina. That is why doctors now recommend feeding
babies first with vegetable puree.

Semolina porridge is nothing more than porridge made from solid-grade
coarse wheat. The semolina contains all those elements
which are in a grain of wheat: it is rich in starch,
to a lesser extent – proteins, vitamins E and B1,

porridge is prepared for children, however, it should be borne in mind that the high
starch content for the child’s body is not required
and therefore children do not want to eat semolina, intuitively feeling
trick. Moreover, children’s stomach is not ready to digest
starch carbohydrates, which semolina is rich in. Mucopolysaccharide
gliodin contained in semolina causes necrosis
intestinal villi, and phytin changes the intestinal microflora
so that it is unable to absorb vitamin D and iron,
necessary for the growth of the child. All the troubles that
conceals semolina in early childhood, they are not at all scary
an adult, and in old age, the disadvantages of deprived
protein cereals turn into virtues. To old people
semolina porridge is very useful – it helps to avoid hypermineralization

stomach and perfectly nourishes.

It turns out that ordinary semolina can be prepared in a very unusual way. Dasha Malakhova will tell you how to do it.
