Indian millets contain distinct lipid fingerprints with anti-diabetic and anti-inflammatory potential
Indian millets are a staple for the country's population of more than a billion. They are also gaining global popularity, with rising exports and a reputation as a climate-resilient crop. Now, new research shows that their nutritional value includes a rich diversity of lipids, including a previously undetected group that may offer potential health benefits. The research is published in the journal Food Chemistry.
