MILLETS

Benifits:

• Rich in antioxidants: Millet is rich in phenolic compounds, especially ferulic acid and catechins. These molecules act as antioxidants to protect your body from harmful oxidative stress
• May help control blood sugar levels: Millet is rich in fiber and non-starchy polysaccharides, two types of undigestible carbs that help control blood sugar levels. This cereal also has a low glycemic index (GI), meaning that it’s unlikely to spike your blood sugar levels. Thus, millets are considered an ideal grain for people with diabetes.
• May help lower cholesterol: Millet contains soluble fiber, which produces a viscous substance in your gut. In turn, this traps fats and helps reduce cholesterol levels. Additionally, millet protein may help lower cholesterol.
• Fits a gluten-free diet:  Millet is a gluten-free grain, making it a viable choice for people with celiac disease or those following a gluten-free diet. Gluten is a protein that occurs naturally in grains like wheat, barley, and rye. People with celiac disease or gluten intolerance must avoid it because it triggers harmful digestive symptoms, such as diarrhea and nutrient malabsorption.
