Let’s Talk Nutrition:

  • Nutrient-Dense Whole Grains: Millet contains fiber, magnesium, and phosphorus. Whole grains like millet support digestive health, regulate blood sugar, and fill you up, making them good for weight loss.
  • Vitamin B: Vegans use nutritional yeast to add cheesy, savory flavor to dairy-free dishes. It contains B vitamins, especially vitamin B12 when fortified. Vegan and vegetarian diets can benefit from nutritional yeast for essential nutrients.
