Millet and your Health
Like buckwheat, millet is very high in protein, making it an excellent choice for vegetarians.
Because Millet is never highly refined, millet loses none of its essential nutrients, including magnesium, a mineral that's essential for regulating heartbeat and maintaining bone strength and nerve function.
Studies show that Millet helps ease PMS symptoms as well.
Millet is also rich in silicon, which is vital for healthy skin, connective tissue, teeth, eyes, hair, and nails.
Many people think that if certain foods are good, a lot is better.
This is not always the case, and high doses of certain food are actually toxic.
Read about the healthy food, research the vitamins and minerals and check with your health care provider if you are unsure about how much to eat and how much may be too much.
The best way to get the daily requirement of 13 essential vitamins is to eat a balanced diet that contains a variety of foods and take a "Standardized" (quality) multivitamin supplement.
