Millet is a very healthy food, which has many benefits for keeping healthy. Here are some benefits of eating millet regularly.

Promote digestion: Xiaomi is rich in cellulose, which helps to promote intestinal peristalsis and accelerate the passage of food in the intestine. At the same time, cellulose can also increase the beneficial flora in the intestine and help stabilize the intestinal environment.

For example, riboflavin, nicotinic acid and folic acid all help to reduce the levels of triglyceride, cholesterol and fat oxidation in blood, while selenium can promote the elasticity and comfort of blood vessels.
