Mr. lybrate-user Kumar, Bajra roti is just as good as jowar roti. There is hardly any difference. Both contain mainly starch. It can be eaten for any of the day's meal. All dry fruits are good enough. But almonds and walnuts (akrod) are supposed to be much better. One can eat 5 to 8 almonds and a few walnuts in the morning. Other dry fruits can be eaten occasionally. There is nothing like great benefit in dry fruits. Thanks.

Yes, it is okay for a diabetic to eat bajra roti. Bajra is a food with low glycemic index when compared to rice and wheat. This will not raise your blood sugar level very fast. It also has higher fibre content and keeps you feeling full for a longer time. It is also high in proteins with amino acid, which helps in strengthening muscles and immune system. It is a good source of iron, which helps formation of hemoglobin in blood and prevents anemia. It is also a moderate sourve of Vitamin B1, which is required for a healthy nervous system. You can eat Bajra roti anytime during the day.
