Is white rice porridge nourishing bone soup reliable for calcium supplementation?

　　Rice porridge does not nourish people. Finely processed white rice has low nutritional value, containing 75% starch, only 8% protein and a small amount of B vitamins. The more rotten the rice porridge is, the more B vitamins will be destroyed. Therefore, the nutritional value of white rice porridge is not as high as that of rice or steamed buns.

　　Compared with rice, white rice porridge is indeed easier to digest and is suitable for gastrointestinal tracts with poor digestive function. disease Patients with gastroenteritis, severe peptic ulcer, pancreatitis, severe hepatitis, etc., as well as some extremely weak patients should eat it. It can also be used as the first choice when you need liquid food when eating for the first time after surgery. But for other patients with normal gastrointestinal digestive function, there is no need to drink it. It is best for patients to eat solid food instead of liquid food. Even if you want to drink porridge, it should not be too thin, and you may wish to add more supplementary ingredients.

　　The nutritional value of bone broth is less than 1/10 of that of milk, and it contains very little energy and protein. Bone broth contains the most fat, and most of it is saturated fatty acid, which is not easy to digest and is very unsuitable for the weak gastrointestinal tract of postoperative or critically ill patients. Bone broth only contains a small amount of nutrients such as amino acids and minerals, which is far from enough for patients who cannot eat normally. Therefore, even if your condition only allows you to eat liquid food, bone broth is definitely not the first choice. milk, egg (flushed with water), rice soup, soy milk, etc. are relatively better. It is also a big mistake for some surgical patients to drink bone soup to supplement calcium. There is not much calcium in bone soup. Boil 1 pound of bones into soup, which only contains 182 mg of calcium, which is far from meeting the 800 mg of calcium needed by an adult every day.
