為甚麼喝米水？
一聽到「米水」二字，有人會聯想到洗米水、炒米水、薏米水甚至粥水，其實米水是中醫傳統養生智慧，食療養生著作《隨息居飲食譜》有提到：「粥飯為世間第一補人之物」，大米性平，補中益氣、健脾養胃。
我們鼓勵大家飲用的「米水」，用紅米、白米及生薏米煮成，紅米及白米屬性平和，加入少量生薏米取其健脾滲濕功效，此配方屬性平和，適合男女老幼飲用，每日一杯米水就能減低脾胃負擔。

中醫理論認為「脾胃為後天之本」、「脾為氣血生化之源」，說明我們自出娘胎，都是依賴脾胃的消化吸收、轉化功能，身體才能攝取飲食中的營養，各部分才能暢順的運作，所以養好脾胃，等於養好消化系統，擁有健康基礎。

簡易養生米水
材料：紅米2湯匙、白米半湯匙、生薏米半湯匙
做法：將材料洗淨，鍋內加入約800-1000毫升水，加入材料，以武火煮滾後調文火煮20－30分鐘。
*米水容易變壞，建議每天煲好，一天飲完，不要過夜。
*孕婦可不落薏米。
*糖尿病人不建議飲用米水。

問：米水與飯的功效有不同嘛？
