Grains

Nutrition Facts Millet

Millet is a grain food whose nutrient profile depends on whether the kernel is whole, pearled, refined, or milled. It provides protein, dietary fiber, polyunsaturated fat, and potassium. Choose a dry, intact package without insects or moisture damage and store it airtight in a cool, dark place; refrigeration extends the quality of whole-grain and high-fat products.

Interesting fact

Milling changes more than particle size

Whole-grain flour retains bran, germ, and endosperm, while refined flour removes much of the bran and germ. Finer particles also expose more surface area to enzymes and oxygen, affecting digestion and storage stability.
