Indigenous grains were a staple of our ancestors’ diet. Today, it is important to bring these grains back into our diet.
1. Improves digestion
The fibers present in millets, ragi, and jowar strengthen the digestive system and relieve constipation.
2. Diabetes control
Since the glycemic index of indigenous grains is low, blood sugar remains controlled.
3. Strengthens bones
Ragi is rich in calcium, which strengthens bones and teeth.
4. Weight control
The high fiber content keeps the stomach full and does not cause weight gain.
5. Heart health
Lowers cholesterol and reduces the risk of heart disease.
