Is millet porridge better or black rice porridge better?
Millet porridge and black rice porridge have their own advantages. You can make a comparison: when you have no appetite or a bad appetite, millet porridge is as important as appetizing.

Therefore, it is impossible for both women and the elderly to take millet as their staple food, so we should pay attention to collocation to avoid the lack of other nutrients. Black rice is the treasure of rice. Known as "Gong Mi", "medicated rice" and "longevity rice", it has special nutritional value.
