JOWAR

Jowar is a staple source of nutrition in arid areas , also known as Sorghum. It's profusely cultivated in areas of Asia and Africa.

Jowar is a gluten free grain and lower Glycemic Index millet that helps to treat and heal the body in various disciplines. Following are the benefits of Jowar :
1. Gluten free - For gluten intolerant patients (Celiac disease) and weight loss as well.
2. Rich in fibre - Gives early satiety.
3. Controls Blood Sugar Spikes - Since it's a complex carbohydrate it digests slowly and delays the release of glucose into the bloodstream.
4. High in Protein - 11 g per 100 g of Jowar.
5. Rich source of Iron - 3.5 mg per 100g of Jowar . Pairing jowar with a Vitamin C source gives maximum benefits.
6. Good for Bone Health - Rich source of Magnesium which also helps in Calcium absorption.
7. Helps in weight loss - High fibre reduces appetite by giving early satiety.
8. Cholesterol lowering effects - Lowers LDL levels and improves HDL levels, thereby reducing the risk of Cardiovascular diseases.
9. Improves digestive health - Improves conditions like diarrhoea, bloating, gastritis, and constipation.

Although the nutritional values of Jowar and Wheat are almost similar , but Jowar's extraordinary property like Low Glycemic Index and Gluten-Free nature makes Jowar a better substitute for Wheat.

Note - Jowar is an excellent source of nutrition for Diabetics.

Take care,

Type 2 Diabetes can be reversed through dietary management and weight management. This way you will be able to normalise your blood glucose levels.
By losing weight or managing your weight , there are lower levels of fat accumulated in the pancreas which in turn helps the beta cells of the pancreas to release INSULIN and control blood sugar levels.🙂

Client diaries ❤️
Those who have been trying hard to lose weight with PCOD need to try some good diet practice and exercise (yoga) atleast 5 days in a week for atleast 30 minutes.
This lady was consistent with her routine and she achieved atleast 50 percent of it in 2 months. The remaining 50 percent might take a month or two. It's not at all difficult. You just need to get on the right track and start with your daily regime.
