What are millets?
Millets are a group of small-seeded grasses that have been cultivated for thousands of years as a staple food crop in many parts of the world. They include various cultivated grasses, commonly known as cereal or grains. They have always been popular among both cattle and humans all over the world ever since the advent of the agrarian lifestyle.
History?
Most species by and large alluded to as millets have a place with the clan Paniceae, however, a few millets likewise have a place with different other taxa. Traditionally an Indian household used to rotate different millets throughout out the week and year. But in the past century due to its highly binding nature wheat has gained immense popularity. Its overconsumption of 7 days a week and many times 3-5 times a day has led to various health issues such as diabetes and associated disorders.
Why Have Millets Suddenly Gained So Much Popularity?
Millets have gained popularity in recent years due to their nutritional benefits, sustainability, and versatility in cooking. They are considered a valuable addition to a healthy and diverse diet. They are also low in glycemic index, making them suitable for people with diabetes or those looking to manage their blood sugar levels. They are also rich in nutrients such as protein, fiber, vitamins, and minerals.
Millets are naturally gluten-free grains, which means they do not contain the protein gluten. This makes them suitable for individuals who have gluten intolerance. (It's important to note that while millets themselves are gluten-free, cross-contamination can occur during processing or storage.)
How can I consume them?
In addition to being used as a staple food grain, millets can be ground into flour for baking, used in porridges, soups, and stews, or popped like popcorn for a crunchy snack.
