In North-West India, including Rajasthan and Haryana, bajra (or pearl millet) is a widely consumed crop. In addition to being suggested for diabetics, the filling millet helps control cholesterol.
The finger millet or ragi will provide you with a variety of macronutrients and micronutrients, including calcium, folate, and vitamin B3, whether you prepare Roti or Cheela.
Amaranth, often referred to as Ramdana, is a grain high in protein that experts advise eating. It can be incorporated into many dishes to increase immunity and lower cholesterol.
Kuttu is a common grain consumed while fasting, particularly during Navratri, and it is thought to help control blood pressure and promote weight loss. There are countless meals you can prepare using buckwheat, from puris to cheelas.
This millet, which is also known as Sanwa locally, has both soluble and insoluble fibres and is gluten-free. You may create oatmeal, Khichdi, and even pulao with it to add in your diet!
