In terms of nutritional value, corn can be compared to rice or legumes. The original growing area for corn was South and Central America, where it was cultivated around the 5th millennium BC.
If we look at the composition of corn in more detail, we can find a lot of useful substances in it. Among the vitamins there are many vitamins of group B, PP, C, and minerals are also in abundance: fluorine, potassium, iodine, phosphorus.
The nutritional value of this crop is significant and amounts to about 100 kilocalories per 100 g of product. However, due to its digestibility, it is quickly digested, and beneficial substances are absorbed into the blood through the walls of the stomach. So even nutritionists recommend eating corn.
As for the effect on the human body, this cereal has an excellent effect on the digestive system, normalizes metabolism and increases overall vitality. For dietary purposes, it is difficult to find a better product. However, if you are underweight, have poor appetite, or have a stomach ulcer, it is recommended to abstain from corn.
Nowadays corn is one of the most popular grains. Huge areas of land are allocated for its planting. The record holder for growing corn is the USA. China and Ukraine also grow a lot.
In cooking, corn has firmly occupied its niche, pushing other grains and beans off the podium. European cuisines have become especially fond of corn.
So, it is usually customary to boil the cobs and eat them with salt or sauce. To preserve corn for the winter, it is canned. In turn, canned corn is used to prepare vegetable salads, main courses and side dishes. In some countries, corn is ground for flour, which is then used to make pies, puddings and cereals. Corn flakes, which are the main breakfast dish in half the countries in the world, have gained great popularity, as has popcorn, a favorite treat in movie theaters.
