NOTE: Barnyard millet is a nutritious and healthy grain, but it should be consumed in moderation as part of a balanced diet.

Drinking enough water helps the fibre digest smoothly and prevents constipation. Although rare, some individuals may be sensitive or allergic to millets, so it is advisable to observe the body’s response when consuming barnyard millet for the first time. People with thyroid disorders, digestive issues, or other medical conditions should consult a healthcare professional before including large quantities in their diet. Proper washing, soaking, and cooking are also important to improve digestibility and nutrient absorption.
