Millet Avam Svasthy Jiwan

The Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) approved Indias proposal to observe the year 2023 as the International Year of Millets/International Year of Nutri-Cereals in the year 2018 and the United Nations General Assembly declared the year 2023 as the International Year of Millets. Millets are nutritionally rich and superior to other staple foods due to their high protein vitamins fiber and minerals like iron content. Millet is also very important from the point of view of health and it is gluten-free which helps in tackling the health challenges of increasing urbanization and lifestyle problems like diabetes cholesterol and obesity. Therefore millet is very important from the point of view of health food and nutritional security. Keeping this subject forward the writers Sapna Langyan and Renu Singh have created the present book Millets and Healthy Living. The main objective of this book is to provide information related to the various benefits including health to the scientists researchers technical assistants policymakers planners students agricultural extension workers farmers and common people.
