Abstract:

Millets have a great potential to health benefit, fodder, nutrition, livelihood, fibre, and the environment than rice and wheat do. because millet is a popular seed crop all over the world due to its high amount of micro and macro nutrients such as fibre, protein, vital fatty acids, vitamins and minerals. One of the most significant grains in the world and a significant food crop is pearl millet (Pennisetum glaucum L.). The UN recently declared 2023 as the “International Year of Millet.” This review was written with the intention of giving a brief review of the studies on the characterization, preparation, applications, and health benefits of millet-based proteins because grains are the majority of people’s main source of nutrition and protein is the 2nd most abundant macronutrient in millet, suggesting that these cereals may be acceptable substitutes for plant-based protein. This knowledge will be crucial in finding research holes that prevent millet proteins from reaching their full potential. Researchers and the food business can use this information further to comprehend the variety of millet proteins that can be used as ingredients in the creation of novel cuisines. In order to increase millet production in India, the study concluded that the right trends, characterization, processing, food applications and health benefits should be provided.
