Benefits:

The three millets - Jowar, Bajra and Ragi are becoming more and more popular because of being incredibly beneficial to the digestive system and their ability to heal chronic conditions like diabetes. Millets are the most under-utilised grains in India but they are packed with nutrition and protein, are gluten-free, healthier than other grains and can be used in various dishes.

Ragi is rich in calcium, iron and dietary fiber and is gluten-free hence, it is suitable for those with gluten intolerance. It helps in managing blood sugar levels due to its low glycemic index, supports weight management and aids digestion.

On the other hand, as an energy-rich snack that can be consumed daily, dates have an excellent nutrition profile as they are high in fiber which is important for our overall health and benefit our digestive health by promoting regular bowel movements. Dates provide various antioxidants that help reduce the risk of several diseases and also help in improving the brain function.
