- Abstract

United Nations has set a target food for everyone by 2030, but still, we are very far away from the target. Millets are four season crop, which is cultivated globally but post-green revolution era, their cultivation has significantly declined due to more accentuation on rice, wheat and maize. The primary suppliers of carbohydrates on which humanity is dependent lack essential amino acids and minerals cardinal for proper nutrition. This lack of nutrients in diet lifestyles welcomes numerous diseases like cardiovascular diseases, obesity and diabetes. Millets are unique for their richness in dietary fibers, antioxidants, protein, carbohydrates and fats. The present global spectacle of climate alternate has forced us to sustain our natural resources. In this case, millets are the ones that are cultivated in poor soils. This review article reviews the beneficiaries of millet in contrast to human health as certain polyphenols like catechin, and sinapic acid, polyphenols found in millets have many sustaining health benefits like prevention against arthritis, cardiovascular diseases, cancer, inflammation, and environment as compared to our staple grains minimum water requirement, less fertile soils, less usage of pesticides and fertilizers for millet cultivation provides many nurturing benefits to our ecosystem. The incorporation of millet into the daily diet of an individual might help in curing many health complications.
