紅米高纖補血健脾胃
不少人想食得健康，煮飯時都習慣性地「溝米」，在白米飯中混入適量紅米烹煮，以增加攝入膳食纖維。曾有傳言指食用紅米會令肝酵素上升甚至致癌，其實是資料發佈者將紅米與紅麴米混淆了，紅麴米並非米的一種，而是大米加入紅麴菌後發酵的產品，不會作為主食。而紅米是糙米的一種，所以不要誤會無辜的紅米了，它既高纖又有補血功效，脾胃功能正常的話不妨多吃。
紅米 — 糙米的一種，由於留有較多未磨走的表殼，更有營養，和白米的補氣養脾胃功效相約，適合有糖尿、貧血、肥胖和便秘的人適量進食。
紅麴米 — 又名紅曲米，是一種將紅麴菌接種在蒸熟大米上發酵加工的米，呈紫紅或棕紅色，一般磨成粉後用於發酵、防腐及食物上色等功能上，例如製作紅腐乳及味噌。
