Little millet, scientifically known as Panicum sumatrense, is a small-grained cereal crop that belongs to the millet family. Little millet is highly nutritious and is a good source of carbohydrates, dietary fiber, protein, vitamins (such as B vitamins), and minerals (such as iron, calcium, and magnesium). It is gluten-free and has a low glycemic index, making it suitable for individuals with gluten intolerance or diabetes.
