• Millet is a plant that has been around for
  hundreds of years and has been used to both heal
  and alleviate a variety of conditions.
• The leaves of the plant are edible but Millet is
  commonly made into a drink.
• The plant grows in a variety of countries and is
  grown in the United States, Africa, India, China,
  South America and Western Europe.
• It can be used as a staple food or added to other
  dishes for added nutrition.
• It's also very popular in households with pets as
  it is easily prepared for consumption.

• As a healing food, millet is beneficial for
  relieving and controlling a wide variety of
  illnesses and conditions.
• It has been used by Native Americans for a number
  of ailments, particularly for animal sickness and
  wounds.
• It was one of the main medicines used by early
  settlers as it was an effective remedy for a
  variety of ailments.
• Modern scientists have shown that millet is as
  beneficial for humans today as it was for ancient
  people.
• Below we'll look at the five elements that
  constitute a healthy mix.

4

• Millet is one of the five elements present in a
  natural millet based health foods diet.
• It is made up from steamed white and brown rice
  hulls and is an excellent source of manna, which
  helps increase the appetite and stimulates
  digestion.
• The dried manna can be used in salads, cereals,
  or as a snack throughout the day.
• To prepare a tasty beverage, you can either boil
  water in a small pan and add the dried manna or
  refrigerate the manna in an air-tight container
  and use in your drinks throughout the day.

• The other three elements found in Manna Foods
  that are considered healthy and nutritious are
  carbohydrates, proteins and fats.
• All of these play a vital role in your body, but
  some foods are much better than others when it
  comes to their contribution towards your overall
  health.
• When choosing which foods you eat, make sure you
  buy them in their most natural form.
• Traditional foods such as millet and maavu powder
  are a great example of foods that are in their
  most natural state.

6

• The benefits of millet and maavu powder go beyond
  their delicious taste.
• These products are packed with essential
  nutrients that help your body to digest food and
  fight against disease.
• For example, carbohydrates (such as millet)
  provide the body with energy which helps you
  exercise and get through the day.
• Proteins (including those found in nuts and
  seeds like sunflower seeds) are needed to keep
  your body healthy and fight disease.
• Finally fats provide the body with the energy it
  needs to function properly and move from one
  stage to the next.

7

• This is just an example of the food products that
  would not be included in an infant food diet.
• You probably do not have these foods available in
  your everyday food products.
• Therefore, you would not be able to incorporate
  the natural millet based health foods into your
  diet.
• It is possible to add them gradually and safely
  into your daily diet.

8

• You can Buy Online Manna Products which are made
  from millet husks.
• These manna sticks are usually sold in the
  supermarket or health food store for about five
  cents each stick.
• You could easily cook them up yourself to enjoy
  the health foods that you love without worrying
  about ingesting traces of pesticides.
• If you buy online you will find that manna sticks
  are easy to carry around and they taste great
  too!
• It's nice to have the ability to introduce these
  healthy infant foods to your baby before they
  become a toddler and begin eating real foods.

• In the next article, we will continue our
  discussion on infant millet based foods.
• We will look at what foods you can serve to your
  baby to start them on their healthy path of food
  and nutrition.
• I hope that this introductory article has been
  helpful in introducing the concept of natural
  millet based millet to you.
