Millet has 49% gms of carbs per 100gms (cooked), but carbs are absorbed more slowly.I cooked millets (probably a third of a cup when uncooked) for breakfast today. I am a bit confused how many carbs that is and if it Is too much for one meal, when i want to be below 100 per day.
And generally are millets a good choice for carbs for LCHF?

Not great.. to be honest no grain or seed will be very good for low carb that's why a lot of us have simply ditched them totally and replaced them with green veg and more meat/chicken/fish instead.Doesn’t sound great if LC is the objective.. Thanks
Except flax seed which seems to get special dispensation.Not great.. to be honest no grain or seed will be very good for low carb that's why a lot of us have simply ditched them totally and replaced them with green veg and more meat/chicken/fish instead.
Flax seed (and Chia) do not come from the grass family of plants so they are not cereals or grain which is often demonized. Seed is too broad a term to completely exclude from low carb diets as for example nuts are seeds and they are often recommended.Except flax seed which seems to get special dispensation.
Indeed I notice a number of terms get the broad brush approach sometimes.Flax seed (and Chia) do not come from the grass family of plants so they are not cereals or grain which is often demonized.

Still are.I remember Millets as a military clothing disposal / camping store.
