Experts say eating rojai porridge, made from barley, peas and lard, reduces the risk of obesity.
"Barley contains about 70% of the daily requirement of manganese per 100 grams, and manganese improves the sensitivity of cells to insulin," explains Konovalov. Malysheva added that a lack of manganese prevents the body from absorbing sugar, which leads to obesity.
