Finger millet is an excellent source of natural calcium which helps in strengthening bones for growing children and ageing people. Regular consumption of finger millet is good for bone health and keeps diseases such as osteoporosis at bay and could reduce the risk of fracture.
For those who are health conscious and are wary about what they eat, experts suggest that millets should be a part of their daily regular diet. Millets are nutritious, non-glutinous (non-sticky) and are not acid-forming foods, thus making them very easy to digest.
