'Include millets in diet to lower risk of diseases'

Mr.Dhanapalan said doctors should suggest minor millets to the people to reduce lifestyle-related diseases. 

Millets such as ragi, thinai, varagu, kambu, cholam, samai and kudiraivaali were rich in nutrition, he said.

A team from Joule Foods, Coimbatore, which promotes minor millets explained simple recipes using minor millets. 


Kudiraivali payasam, samai pongal and cholam biriyani were prepared at the venue. "Most people think that minor millets cannot be eaten everyday. The general assumption is that not many dishes could be prepared from millets. 


Our demonstration will make them understand that different dishes could be made from millets as well," said V.R.Dharmendra, one of the members of Joule Foods. Dhan Foundation and Joule Foods had also put up stalls containing cookies and other snacks made of minor millets. The event was organised by Dhan Foundation and Agrini Residential Enclave.
