9 types of khichdis to help you detox

As kids, we hated this pale meal that our mothers fed us when we were sick. Khichdi has always been received with a cringe. However, with the recent intervention of many diet ideologies, this Indian super food has made its way back to our list. Here are different khichdis which can help you detox with their added nutritional benefits.
Also known as kuttu in hindi, buckwheat is rich in fiber, high in proteins and vitamins. It is also loaded with minerals like magnesium, iron, zinc and copper. Buckwheat is known for lowering blood pressure, helping with cholesterol issues and is great for diabetics as the glycemic index of buckwheat is only 49. Buckwheat khichdi with ghee is a good start for your detox week.
Also known as Sago, sabudana is known for its anti-inflammatory properties which help in its easy digestion. This khichdi is usually made during navratras but can be savoured during your detox week as sago is pure carbohydrate, vitamin C, calcium and minerals. As it contains pure carbs and provides high energy, sago is used to break fasts.
