Millet can significantly bring down sugar levels in those suffering from type-2 diabetes. ... The study, undertaken by M V Hospital for Diabetes, found that replacing rice based dosas with ones made of foxtail millet (Thinai) can significantly bring down sugar levels in those suffering from type-2 diabetes.

With a plethora of health benefits to offer like minimized risk of diabetes, and cardiovascular diseases, it is certainly food for diabetics. Millets essentially contain lower levels of amino acids and higher fat content. ... Millets like Jowar, Ragi and Bajra made for a very important part of the Indian diet earlier.

Recently, I heard about Korralu while in Hyderabad. Apparently, they are known as pearl millet. They look like rice and can be cooked and eaten like rice and hence can be eaten in place of rice. Although, I have not used them yet, one of my friends who is diabetic and is on insulin used them and found significant improvement in sugar levels on the days he ate Korralu. I have yet to find the Marathi equivalent of this millet and its availability here. I also would like to try them if possible.
