Activated Kodo Millet

60.00

Activated Kodo Millet is a nutrient-dense whole grain that undergoes a meticulous process of soaking, rinsing, fermenting, and sprouting to enhance its nutritional profile and digestibility.

This activation process effectively breaks down anti-nutrients like phytic acid, which inhibits the absorption of essential minerals such as calcium and iron.

Nutritional Benefits

Health and Nutritional Benefits of Activated Kodo Millet:

  1. Enhanced Nutrient Absorption:
    • The activation process significantly reduces phytic acid, an anti-nutrient that binds minerals and hampers their absorption. Studies published in the Journal of Food Science and Technology highlight that soaking and sprouting increase the bioavailability of iron, calcium, magnesium, and zinc by up to 40%.
  2. Rich in Fiber:
    • High dietary fiber promotes healthy digestion, regulates bowel movements, and aids in lowering cholesterol levels. According to research in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, a high-fiber diet is associated with a reduced risk of heart disease and improved metabolic health.
  3. Low Glycemic Index:
    • With a low glycemic index (GI), activated Kodo millet helps manage blood sugar levels, making it an excellent choice for individuals with diabetes. A study in the Journal of Nutrition & Food Sciences confirmed that low-GI foods contribute to better blood sugar control and sustained energy release.
  4. Gluten-Free:
    • It is a naturally gluten-free grain, making it suitable for people with gluten intolerance or celiac disease.
  5. Rich in Antioxidants:
    • The activation process enhances the antioxidant content, which combats oxidative stress and reduces the risk of chronic diseases such as heart disease and cancer. Antioxidants like phenolic compounds have been extensively studied for their role in cellular protection (Antioxidants Journal, 2022).
  6. High in Protein:
    • Sprouting improves the protein quality, making it a great source of plant-based amino acids for muscle repair and overall health.
  7. Supports Weight Management:
    • High fiber and protein content promote a feeling of fullness, aiding in appetite control and weight management. A study published in Obesity Reviews indicates that high-fiber diets are effective in reducing overall calorie intake.
  1. Improved Digestibility:
    • Activation pre-digests complex carbohydrates and proteins, making Kodo millet easier on the stomach and reducing bloating and gastrointestinal discomfort. Enhanced digestibility is supported by findings in the Journal of Gastroenterology
  1. Enhanced Taste and Texture:
    • The sprouting process develops a nutty flavor and chewy texture.
