Eat Millet Grains

Whole cereal grain meal has been found very helpful in the maintenance of the digestive system and the general health in term of nutrition.

Millet may help reduce the risk of cancer and also prevents skin problems.

A recent study showed that whole millet grains -- and those are all fine examples -- may have great health benefit. They may help reduce the risk of cancer of the small intestine. Although it is less common to have cancer of the small intestine. Yet it is not very small -- or insignificant. As the intestine makes up about 75 percent of your digestive tract!

In a large-scale study of adults, those who reported eating the most whole grains as meal, at the start of the study were 41 percent less likely to have developed cancer of the small intestine 7 years later. Researchers believe that certain nutrients found in abundance in whole grains -- like B vitamins, fiber, minerals, and phenols -- may be responsible for the protective effect.

Meals served with millet cakes and bread can fit in for breakfast, lunch, or dinner.

The Importance of Dietary Fiber.

Insufficient consumption of vitamins may cause severe deficiencies. Wrinkles and pimples are some the main skin infections that are closely related to lack of appropriate quantity of some vitamins (Riboflavin and Thiamine) present in many cereals. Whole grain consumption can greatly prevent and cure pimples. High-fiber breakfast cereals may be better for you than you think.

High-fiber foods not only help regulate digestion, but they also help keep insulin levels in check.

In a study, men who ate high-fiber cereal experienced lower peak insulin levels than men who consumed low-fiber cereal. Insulin control is an important part of type 2 diabetes prevention. Aim to include in your diet at least 25 grams of fiber each day. You can do this by eating high-fiber foods such as whole grains.

Fiber is the indigestible part of fruits, vegetables, and whole grains that helps you to feel full and regulates digestion. It helps control blood sugar levels by slowing absorption in the digestive tract.

In a study, a group of men with hyperinsulinemia, a condition that indicates insulin resistance and an increased risk of developing type 2 diabetes, did not experience the same insulin spike with high-fiber cereal as they did when they had eaten low-fiber cereal.
