Summary

This study tests whether replacing half the wheat in rotis with barnyard millet, barley, or bengal gram flour can lower blood sugar and help reverse prediabetes. 140 adults with prediabetes will eat these special rotis for three months while researchers track their glucose levels and HbA1c. The goal is a 10% improvement in blood sugar control through diet alone.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance: dietary intervention: rotis made with 50% wheat and 50% barnyard millet, barley, or bengal gram flour
What this could lead to: If it works, this could show that a simple change in daily bread can help control blood sugar and possibly reverse prediabetes without medication.
What could go wrong: This is a small, early-stage dietary study with only 140 participants. Results may not apply to everyone, and the effect on long-term health is uncertain.
