Samak rice, or barnyard millet, is a nutritious grain popular in India and parts of Asia, known for its rich content of dietary fiber, protein, vitamins, and essential minerals. Gluten-free and low in calories, it aids digestion, supports weight management, and helps regulate blood sugar levels, making it suitable for diabetics. Commonly consumed during fasting periods in Hinduism, Samak rice can be cooked similarly to regular rice and used in various dishes, including upma and khichdi.

Gas, acidity, and indigestion are common digestive issues that can cause discomfort and disrupt daily life. Gas is often the result of swallowed air or the breakdown of certain foods in the digestive system, leading to bloating and flatulence. Acidity, or acid reflux, occurs when stomach acid flows back into the esophagus, causing a burning sensation and discomfort. Indigestion, characterized by symptoms like bloating, nausea, and a feeling of fullness, can result from overeating, consuming spicy or fatty foods, or stress.
