Accompanying my mother to the hospital, I was really frightened. The cancer hospital was overcrowded! All kinds of diseases that I have never heard of make me secretly worried about my stomach that is always aching.

I’m idle and I’m idle. I just bite the bullet and made a gastroscope. Fortunately, it’s just ordinary gastritis. But after Baidu, the gastritis is not as simple as we imagined. If you don’t pay attention to maintenance, it may also become cancerous. !

I was scared to death, so I went home to find various ways to nourish my stomach. So, during this period of time with the pumpkin!
Pumpkin is a vegetable that is particularly easy to grow. Sprinkle a few seeds at random in the corner, and there will be pumpkins that can't be eaten in autumn. Therefore, the price of pumpkin is also super cheap. It is said that the price of cabbage is the price of cabbage. In fact, pumpkin is cheaper than cabbage. Our winter here is usually three or four cents a catty, my family always carry home big and big!

Regardless of the fact that pumpkins are cheap, they have a lot of nutrition!

Pumpkin is rich in zinc. Zinc can participate in the synthesis of nucleic acid and protein in the human body. It is an important substance that promotes human growth and development. Children in the growth and development period should eat more. Food supplements are much stronger than calcium and zinc!

Pumpkin contains mannitol, which has a diuretic and laxative effect. In winter, the climate is dry. Eating more pumpkin can promote intestinal peristalsis.

Did you know that the doctor advised me to eat more pumpkin, because the pectin contained in pumpkin is absorbent, can protect the gastric mucosa, promote bile secretion, strengthen gastrointestinal motility, and help digestion.
There are many varieties of pumpkins, big and small, green and yellow. This time I saw Beibei pumpkins are small and cute, and I couldn't help but carry four of them back.

The nutritional value of Beibei pumpkin is higher than that of ordinary pumpkin. Its sweetness is higher, it is softer, more delicate and sweet, has the fragrance of fresh chestnut, and is soft and smooth like chocolate. It is especially suitable for dessert snacks.

Let me share with you the easiest and most delicious recipe of a Beibei pumpkin. It can be done in a few minutes. It is great for breakfast or supper! My son who doesn’t eat pumpkins is in love!
