Las propiedades de la horchata de chufa, que se produce mayoritariamente en la Comunidad Valenciana, pasan por la reducci\u00f3n del colesterol, la disminuci\u00f3n de los riesgos de sufrir infartos o los beneficios para los enfermos de arteriosclerosis o con insuficiencias renales, seg\u00fan los \u00faltimos datos presentados ayer por el Consejo Regulador de la Denominaci\u00f3n de Origen Chufa de Valencia.
\nLa que denominan \u201cla bebida refrescante por excelencia\u201d es recomendable incluso para las personas que sufren hipertensi\u00f3n, dado su bajo contenido en sodio, al tiempo que aporta cantidades de hierro y magnesio superiores a las de la leche, lo que la convierte beneficiosa durante los periodos de la infancia, el embarazo y la vejez.
\nAsimismo, los expertos aEmpresan que es adecuada para las insuficiencias renales y ayuda a cicatrizar ya que la arginina incrementa la celularidad linfocitaria.<\/p>\n
Seg\u00fan el doctor Miguel Bixquert, uno de los responsables del estudio, gracias a su contenido en \u00e1cido grasos, esta bebida se parece al aceite de oliva. Algunos de sus efectos beneficiosos reci\u00e9n descubiertos son la reducci\u00f3n del c\u00e1ncer de colon.
\nLa Comunidad Valenciana es tambi\u00e9n la principal autonom\u00eda consumidora de este producto, ya que los valencianos consumen gran parte de los 40 \u00f3 50 millones de litros anuales que se producen. A esta regi\u00f3n le siguen Catalu\u00f1a, la Comunidad de Madrid y Andaluc\u00eda.
\nDe igual modo, el informa se\u00f1ala que a pesar de la fuerte presi\u00f3n urban\u00edstica a la que est\u00e1 sometida la zona de cultivo, que corresponde a un total de 16 municipios, la superficie dedicada al cultivo de la chufa se ha mantenido en los \u00faltimos a\u00f1os en unas 400 hect\u00e1reas. Actualmente existen en Valencia cerca de 500 productores de chufa con su propia denominaci\u00f3n de origen que la regula.<\/p>\n
