Millet-based diet can lower risk of type 2 diabetes : Study

Hyderabad, Jul 29 (UNI) A new study has shown that eating millets reduces the risk of developing type diabetes and helps manage blood glucose levels in people with diabetes, indicating the potential to design appropriate meals with millets for diabetic and pre-diabetic people as well as for non-diabetic people as a preventive approach, according to International Crops Research Institute for the Semi-Arid Tropics (ICRISAT).
“This study is first in a series of studies that has been worked on for the last four years as a part of the Smart Food initiative led by ICRISAT that will be progressively released in 2021.
