Regular moderate exercise complements millet’s metabolic benefits
  • Dr. Vali differentiates “exercise” (moderate walking, yoga) from “gym‑centric high‑intensity training,” which he believes can stress the gut.
  • He advises a daily 30‑minute walk plus millet‑rich meals, noting that this combination improves lipid profiles more than either alone.
  • In his observations, patients who added walking to a millet diet reduced triglycerides by 20 % within two months.
  • The synergy is explained by increased muscle glucose uptake and enhanced mitochondrial efficiency, both fueled by millet‑derived carbohydrates.
  • He cautions against sedentary lifestyles, especially when consuming refined carbs, as they exacerbate insulin resistance.
