A Small Change, Big Impact

Switching your daily flour to multigrain atta is one of the simplest and most effective health upgrades you can make. Unlike regular wheat flour, multigrain atta blends whole grains such as chana, ragi, jowar, bajra, oats, barley etc., offering a balanced mix of complex carbs, fibre, protein, vitamins, and minerals.

And when you make this switch for just 30 days, your body begins to show noticeable improvements- both inside and out.

Week 1–2: Better Digestion & Sustained Energy

You might first notice improved gut health. The increased fibre in multigrain atta promotes smoother digestion, regular bowel movements, and reduces bloating.

According to the National Institute of Nutrition (NIN), Hyderabad, most Indians fall short of the daily recommended fibre intake (25–35 g/day). Switching to multigrain atta can help bridge that gap naturally.

Additionally, because of its low glycemic index, multigrain atta releases energy gradually keeping you full longer and preventing post-meal crashes.

Week 3–4: Noticeable Health Improvements

As your body adapts, the benefits extend beyond digestion. The soluble fibre and antioxidants in whole grains may help regulate cholesterol and blood sugar levels.

A 2018 meta-analysis published in the Journal of Nutrition found that each 30 g/day increase in whole-grain intake was associated with an 8–9% lower risk of cardiovascular disease and a 6% lower risk of type 2 diabetes.

Dr. Shweta Khandelwal, Head of Nutrition Epidemiology at Public Health Foundation of India (PHFI), notes:

“Including a diversity of grains — especially millets — in your daily diet can significantly improve metabolic and gut health in as little as a few weeks.”

🌾 Backed by Indian Guidelines

The ICMR-NIN Dietary Guidelines (2023) explicitly recommend consuming whole and diversified grains daily, emphasising millets and multigrain blends to combat lifestyle diseases. Even large hospital networks like AIIMS Delhi and Apollo Hospitals have introduced millet- or multigrain-based options in their patient and staff menus.

This aligns with the government’s “Millet Mission” and India’s growing shift toward natural, fibre-rich staples.

How to Make the 30-Day Switch Work

Start with a 50:50 mix of regular and multigrain atta for the first week.
Keep hydration levels up to balance the higher fibre content.
Try recipes like multigrain rotis, stuffed parathas, or khichdi to make it family-friendly.

The Bottom Line

Eating Multigrain Atta every day for 30 days can:

Improve digestion
Regulate blood sugar levels
Support heart health
Reduce unhealthy snacking
Boost long-term energy

It’s not a fad — it’s a fact-backed lifestyle change supported by India’s top health experts and research institutions.

So next time you knead your dough, remember: small swaps build lasting wellness.
