In India, wheat flour (gehu ka atta) is a staple in every meal. But according to Dr. Saleem, the commonly available hybrid wheat can harm health over time because itβs often genetically modified using gamma rays, X-rays, and chemicals. Regular consumption may lead to obesity, diabetes, thyroid imbalance, and gluten intolerance.
πΎ Why Only Wheat Is Not EnoughTraditional Indian diets included multiple grains like millet, barley, and chickpeas, which provided balanced nutrition. Dr. Saleem suggests that mixing a few natural grains into your daily flour can turn it into a superfood that boosts immunity and prevents chronic illnesses.
π₯£ Four Ingredients for the Healthiest FlourChickpeas (Chana) β Rich in protein and fiber, controls cholesterol and blood sugar.
Barley (Jau) β Detoxifies the body and supports kidney health.
Finger Millet (Ragi) β Loaded with calcium, strengthens bones, aids diabetes control.
Pearl Millet (Bajra) β High in iron, improves digestion and energy levels.
-  Wheat β 10 parts 
-  Chickpeas β 2.5 parts 
-  Barley β 2 parts 
-  Ragi β 1 part 
-  Bajra β 1 part 
Wash and sun-dry all grains. Grind each separately, store in airtight jars, and mix in the given ratio before making rotis. Avoid storing mixed flour for more than a week to prevent spoilage.
π‘ Health BenefitsThis natural blend strengthens the immune system, balances hormones, and protects against heart disease, arthritis, and obesity. A small dietary change can bring long-term wellness and vitality.
