Ganji typically means liquid food. There are limitless possibilities of Ganji in our traditional food which are tasty as well.

Finger Millet ( Ragi), Pearl Millet ( Kambu), Jowar Millet, Little Millet (Samai) are used widely in our villages where we grew-up. Besides millets, there are power packed grains such as  Horse gram, Black-Rice and Barley. There are significant health benefits if we can integrate these into our lifestyle.

Converting these divine grains into lovely consumable Ganji is an art.  We have spent years worth of effort in making this a reality. Making these super grains part of our lifestyle is to convert to Koozh ( as known in Tamil )  or "Ambli" ( as known in Kannada/Telugu) or Raabdi ( as known in northern part of India).

Tasty while keeping the nutrients intact!

Traditionally, preparation of Ganji/Koozh is long and complicated and technical know-how is not widespread as much as we would like it to be. In the current fast paced world, we seldom find time for that and hence switch to easily available options. 

Starting from the raw grain to getting the finished product of Ganji, it typically takes about 36 hours. In our factory, each batch is a week-long process.  Fermenting is one of the core parts of the preparation. Fermentation provides gut friendly bacteria - also known as probiotics. We have done all those for you in the form you can use instantly. We have added spice and condiments that are of highest quality to provide the native taste of the product. 

At home or when travelling, all we need is boiling water which we can get in our house or in any hotel room (when travelling). Of course cup of curd makes it complete.

We request you to give yourself and your body a chance by using this product once. You will not regret it. Consistent use of Ganji as morning food can do wonders! One pouch can make 500ml of Ganji and is more than sufficient for a good morning breakfast for most of us.

Part 2 - I will discuss the benefits.

Where can you buy? - www.SirimiriHealth.com Soon we will make it available through Amazon.in as well.  We are launching in select stores in Bangalore, Chennai, Coimbatore and Pondy ( SPAR/Pothys/Grace)

GANJI Box - Benign Traditional Food - Part 2 - Why?

Why Millets and Why in Ganji form is very simple question to answer.

Simple answer- Complex Carbohydrates!


Millets are hard grains with high amount of protein, fiber with high levels of micronutrients. For example, for most millet, the protein level and fiber level are almost the same. This composition is not very common in grains. This structure makes it a complex carbohydrate among other things.

For instance, Bajra ( Pearl Millet/Kambu/Sajjae) has 11% protein with 11.5% fiber.  Fiber is like a speed breaker in the digestion process.  Millets are high in Folates, and rich in Magnesium, Calcium, Potassium, Iron and Zinc. ( Ref IFCT 2020)

Because it is a complex carbohydrate, the digestion takes more time and the body slowly works on it. It gives an opportunity for the body to absorb the nutrients. Because the digestion happens slow, it does not increase/spike blood sugar levels.  Helping us to manage or even prevent diabetes. It is that simple. Remember, anything we eat gets converted to glucose eventually. How slowly it happens is what matters!

Our job is to convert this wonder grains into traditional Ganji ( Koozh/Ambli) making it easier to consume on a daily basis. Ganji making involves fermentation and hence making the food rich in probiotics. Probiotics are natural gut bacteria helping us in gut health.  In addition to being high in nutrition, it is also very tasty which we can look forward to consuming it each day.

If we can manage taking Ganji as our breakfast for a sustained period of time (say two to three months), we can see noticeable improvement - be it energy levels or overall health and wellbeing.

Good luck
