1. If you are worried that the lemon peel is not clean, you can repeatedly rub the peel with salt. 2. Coix seed is not easy to cook and must be soaked in advance. If it is too hot, it should be placed in the refrigerator for refrigeration. 3. Don't throw away coix rice if you don't eat it. Put it into the rice to be steamed. It can not only avoid waste, but also add new nutrients to the daily staple rice. 4. When your skin is poor or you feel that your body is slightly obese, it is better to drink it 4 times a week. When your skin condition improves, you can reduce the number of times you drink as needed. Special reminder: Please do not drink this drink for pregnant women. Some records about coix seed rice say that eating coix seed during pregnancy can easily lead to miscarriage. Although I have not tested it myself, I still recommend that you not try it during pregnancy.
