Description

Millets are high in fiber and essential amino acids. In addition to being nutritious, bajra is resistant to drought, heat, and some forms of contamination that affect other grains. It has been used for years as a cover crop and animal feed, but its low cost and high nutrient content make it a great source of food for people as well. It is especially helpful in areas with food insecurity.

How Millets Can Improve Your Health

All millets, including pearl millet, have substantial health benefits, including:

  • Reduces your risk of developing type 2 diabetes. A study of 55,465 people between the ages of 50 and 65 found that men who ate the most whole grains had a 34% decreased risk of developing type 2 diabetes. Women who ate the most whole grains had a 22% decreased risk.
  • The fiber in whole grains such as bajra is harder for your body to break down. Because of this, it doesn’t cause a spike in blood sugar that refined grains can cause. Stabilizing your blood sugar helps your body use insulin better.
  • Reduces your risk of cardiovascular disease. A diet high in whole grains such as bajra can help lower your total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein (LDL) or bad cholesterol, triglycerides, and blood sugar levels. The Harvard-based Nurses’ Health Study found that women who ate two to three servings of whole grains daily were 30% less likely to have a heart attack or die from heart disease than women who ate less than one serving of whole grains weekly.
