Unwanted impacts on human health and the environment are partially caused by excessive consumption of foods that need a lot of resources, including animal-based goods. Reduced dairy consumption by the use of plant-based dairy products, vegan milk drinks, or nuts based milk is a significant alternative to furthering animal husbandry and resource exploitation. Multigrain proteins must be converted into plant-based dairy substitutes in order to satisfy consumer demand and strengthen the food supply chain to conserve the biodiversity. Various millets support a healthy immune system, lower blood pressure, and fewer cardiac illnesses in humans. Antioxidants included in millet protect against cancer, heart disease, diabetes, and tumour growth. Variety of millets like Kodo millet, Barnyard millet, Proso millet, and Foxtail millet rich in protein and fibre content increased in malted drinks. The dairy substitute comes to the rescue and offers the same level of creaminess and froth as dairy milk without any of the fat, cholesterol, or hormones from cows. On the other hand, plant based foods has no cholesterol, 90% less saturated fat, fewer calories, and all the essential vitamins. Additionally, plant-based milk has various health advantages. Since it produces a product with more protein and less fat, the malting process is advantageous. The malting process proves beneficial since it results in a product with increased protein and decreased fat levels. Along with the all health benefits of vegan milk preparation through the millet, it proved super food and healthier option for each age group.
