Little millet (Panicum miliare) is an ancient grain packed with nutrients and easy to digest. Here's why it's a great addition to your diet:

1. Low Glycemic Index & Diabetes Support

Little millet has a medium GI (~52) and low glycemic load, which means it releases sugar slowly, helping maintain healthy blood sugar levels.
Its high fiber and resistant starch help slow digestion, keeping energy levels stable – good for people with diabetes and those watching their sugar.

2. High Fiber & Plant Protein

With about 7 g fiber and 7.7 g protein per 100 g, little millet supports digestion, keeps you full, and helps build muscles.

3. Rich in Antioxidants & Gut-Friendly

Little millet has polyphenols and antioxidants that protect cells and aid digestion. It can support gut health, reduce inflammation, and may help with weight management.

4. Nutrient Dense

It provides essential minerals like iron, magnesium, and B-vitamins, supporting energy production, bone strength, and immunity.

5. Gluten-Free & Easy to Cook

Little millet is naturally gluten-free, making it suitable for those with gluten sensitivity or celiac disease. It's easy to cook into porridge, dosa, upma, and pilaf.
