Emperor Corn

  Emperor Corn is a naturally grown, golden-yellow corn produced in the Lao Guan Mountain area. After the corn plants naturally turn yellow, the ears are harvested, dried, and the whole kernels are removed. These are then processed using micro-powder technology to preserve the full nutritional integrity of the corn kernels. "Old corn" refers to mature, dried corn as opposed to fresh corn. Compared to regular corn, it contains more crude fiber and less soluble sugar.

  Scientific tests on old corn have shown that every 100 grams can provide nearly 300 milligrams of calcium, which is almost equivalent to the calcium content found in dairy products. The plant fiber in old corn helps accelerate the elimination of carcinogens and other toxins; natural vitamin E promotes cell regeneration, delays aging, prevents skin conditions, and can also alleviate arteriosclerosis and cognitive decline. Old corn contains lutein and zeaxanthin, which help combat eye aging, stimulate brain cells, and enhance cognitive ability and memory. Among all staple foods, corn has the highest nutritional value and health benefits. Its vitamin content is very high—5 to 10 times that of rice or wheat—and it is also rich in carbohydrates, protein, fat, and carotene. Regular consumption of cornmeal can aid digestion, benefit the lungs and calm the mind, clear damp heat, support liver and gallbladder function, and delay aging.

  Animal experiments have shown that the corn oil extracted from the germ of the corn contains a large amount of unsaturated fatty acids, with linoleic acid making up 60%, which can remove harmful cholesterol from the blood and prevent arteriosclerosis. The nutrients in the tip of the corn germ can enhance metabolism and regulate nervous system function. According to scientific surveys, African women who engage in agricultural labor and consume corn as their staple food have a very low incidence of colon cancer, indicating that corn has anti-cancer properties. In addition, corn contains more than five times the amount of carotene found in soybeans, which also helps inhibit carcinogens. Corn is rich in lysine and the trace element selenium, which help prevent tumors. Old corn is also abundant in B vitamins and niacin, which are effective in protecting nerve conduction and gastrointestinal function, preventing beriberi and myocarditis, and maintaining healthy skin.
