Yes, we are talking about none other than Siridhanya Millets! In this blog, we are primarily going to focus on two things:
-
What is the word-by-word meaning of Siridhanya Millets
-
Difference between positive millets and neutral millets
So, first, let’s begin with understanding all about Siridhanya Millets.
What is the meaning of Siridhanya Millets?
Siridhanya is a term used in the context of traditional Indian agriculture and refers to a specific category of grains and millet that are considered highly nutritious and beneficial for health.
The word "Siridhanya" is derived from the combination of two Sanskrit words:
“Shiri” means Bhagavan or another meaning is wealth and prosperity, and “Dhanya," means grains or cereals! And millets are a group of small-seeded grasses which you will commonly find on various grasses or plants!
If you read भ ग वा न – then these words are made up of five elements are also called pañca-mahā-bhūta:
Earth - Bhumi (भ)
Space – Gagan (ग)
Air – Vaayu (वा)
Water – Nir (न)
Fire – Agni (્)
And when we talk about these 5 elements than they are present in Siridhanya millets and it is absolutely loved by Bhagavan Sri Hari.
Health is wealth because, without good health, all the riches in the world lose their meaning. True wealth lies in the vitality and well-being of our bodies and minds. When we are healthy, we have the energy and strength to pursue our goals, enjoy life's pleasures, and contribute to society. Good health grants us the freedom to explore and experience the world around us, unencumbered by physical limitations. It allows us to build meaningful relationships, engage in fulfilling activities, and achieve our aspirations. But how do we achieve good health? By choosing our food consciously and when we say choosing food consciously, we mean including millet in your diet, especially Siridhanya Millet!
Siridhanya millet is considered to be positive millet and the rest of other millet is considered neutral millet. Let’s know the difference between the two.
What Is the Difference Between Positive Millets & Neutral Millets?
First, of all to know the difference between the positive millet and neutral millet we check their carbs and fibre ratio percentage. In both the millets, the percentage of carbs contains between 60% to 75% but when we talk about the fibre percentage it makes a very big difference!
|
Neutral Millets |
Fibre Percentage |
|
Pearl Millet |
1.2% to 3.6% |
|
Finger Millet |
|
|
Proso Millet |
|
|
Sorghum Millet |
|
|
Corn |
|
Positive Millets |
Fibre Percentage |
|
Browntop |
12.5% |
|
Little Millet |
10% |
|
Barnyard Millet |
10% |
|
Kodo Millet |
9% |
|
Foxtail Millet |
8% |
Now, if we talk about the ratio of fibre v/s carbs between neutral millets and positive millets (Siridhanya millet) then all the positive millets have a single digit ratio and all the neutral millets are in double digit. Hence, these 5 millets: Kodo, Little, Browntop, Barnyard and Foxtail are included in a positive millet category. You can see the difference in the below image:
