Pearl millet, or bajra, is a key millet species known for its high fiber content, providing satiety by slowing digestion. Its abundant phosphorus and calcium contribute to peak bone density, while its high fiber reduces the risk of gallstone occurrence. 

Sorghum, or jowar, a carbohydrate-rich crop from the Gramineae family, features slow-digesting starch, low protein and fat digestibility. Rich in antioxidants, particularly phenolic compounds, sorghum helps combat inflammation. 

Finger millet (ragi) is a nutrient-dense grain rich in minerals, fiber, polyphenols, and proteins. Its high calcium and potassium content make it beneficial for children, pregnant women, and those managing obesity, diabetes, or malnutrition, supporting kidney and brain function.

Foxtail millet, with a unique protein composition rich in essential amino acids, offers health benefits. Proper processing minimizes anti-nutrients like phytic acid and tannin. The millet is also recognized for its antioxidant, low-glycemic index, and hypolipidemic properties.
