Exploring Scientific Validation of Millets in Contemporary Healthcare: A Traditional Food Supplement.
Recent Adv Food Nutr Agric 2024 January 23
Millets, small-seeded grasses, are gaining interest for their nutrition and health benefits. This abstract provides a comprehensive overview of millets' pharmacological activities, highlighting their rich bioactive compounds. These compounds, including phenolic compounds, flavonoids, and dietary fibers, contribute to antioxidant effects, safeguarding against chronic diseases. Millets also possess anti-inflammatory properties, potentially alleviating conditions, like arthritis and asthma. They show anti-carcinogenic potential, possibly preventing various cancers' development through mechanisms, like apoptosis induction and inhibiting tumor growth. Moreover, millets offer hypolipidemic and hypoglycemic effects, beneficial for managing conditions, such as dyslipidemia and diabetes. Their high dietary fiber and resistant starch content regulate blood lipids and glucose, reducing the cardiovascular risk. Additionally, millets act as antimicrobials, inhibiting pathogens and serving as natural alternatives to synthetic antimicrobials. They exhibit immunomodulatory effects, enhancing immune function and response. Overall, millets' pharmacological properties, including antioxidant, antiinflammatory, anti-carcinogenic, hypolipidemic, hypoglycemic, antimicrobial, and immunomodulatory traits, position them as functional foods with varied health benefits. Further research can integrate millets into preventive and therapeutic approaches for diverse diseases.
