Notes

  • Millets, being rich in antioxidants like quercetin and catechins, neutralize free radicals and control inflammation, which is the root cause of most diseases known today.
  • Being a low GI (glycaemic index) grain naturally, millets are digested and absorbed slowly, causing a slower and smaller spike in blood sugar levels.
  • How about stuffing the millet noodles in a dosa? Here's a must-try tiffin snack.
