Benefits:
Millet can be one of the healthier grains to add to your diet if you want to protect your heart. It is a rich source of magnesium, which is an important mineral for reducing blood pressure. It is also rich in silicium, potassium, iron, and different polyphenols.
According to Ayurveda, millet is dry, light, and slightly hot. It increases Vata energy and balances Kapha and Pitta. For a Pitta type, you can replace yogurt with cottage cheese or other milk product which is not sour and fermented. Do you know what a dosha is? Find out your dosha here.
