Abstract:
The present study was carried out to develop a multi-millet mix for type II diabetic patients. Foxtail millet, barnyard millet, soyabean, flaxseeds, groundnut, bengal gram dhal, green chillies, mustard seeds and cumin seeds were used to prepare the multi-millet mix. Proximate analysis was done and the glycemic index of this multi-millet mix was estimated. The glycemic index of the multi-millet mix was 64.5% which falls in the medium glycemic index category. Then the therapeutic product was developed from the multi-millet mix.
