While India is now officially the diabetes capital of the world, an easy way to prevent the onset of this disease is to replace refined foods with whole, natural foods. Renounce refined wheat and go back to eating traditional jowar, ragi and bajra rotis again. These millet’s are cheap and should easily be available across all good organic shops in your neighborhood. They taste yummy, especially when washed down with a glass of spiced buttermilk which makes it sit easy on the stomach too!
