In fact, its ending is a beginning. There used to be a time when millet was as common as water upon the tongues. But then, there came the flash flood of the Western diet, sweeping away the bits of our healthy dietary tradition.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, the world is coming awake to its diet-related mistakes. Adding to it, the UN declared the year 2023 as the International Year of <a href=\"https:\/\/happytummy.aashirvaad.com\/en\/healthy-eating\/what-is-millets-everything-you-need-to-know\/\">Millets<\/a> in order to induce people toward healthy choices.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The affair of millet and mankind is over 10,000 years old. In fact, it is one of the oldest known ones. There are mentions of millet in the Vedic texts. No wonder it is nutritious and delicious as well. And since the time it originated, it spread throughout the world. Today, you\u2019ll find many types of millet. Each of these types is known by different names in different languages. So, let\u2019s dive deep into it and know its names and cultural significance.

Have a walk upon different lands and you\u2019ll witness it. There are different sizes, shapes, colours, and even nutritional value.
