== '''1. INTRODUCTION''' == Millet (Pearl Millet ; ''Pennisetum glaucum'' (L.)) is an important cultivar especially in Africa and Asia. It has many beneficial health effect. It is rich in dietary fibres and cholesterol-lowering properties, so effective for heart patients. It is quite a perfect diet supplement for patients with Celiac disease and gluten intolerance as it is gluten-free and easily digested. It acts as a therapeutic agent for people with frequent acidity and stomach ulcers. It is rich in fiber and prevents constipation helping to promote healthy gut [1]. Millet provides enough protein so vegetarians might get the required protein from millets even if they do not consume meat and fish products. This is where pearl millets can take the role to compensate protein requirements. Further, it lowers blood pressure as it is rich in potassium. The mineral composition of millet gives the privilege to make bone stronger. The cause is high phosphorus content of millet. Millets are rich in antioxidants prevent early ageing, cardiovascular diseases, and helps in faster wound healing. It is ideal for weight management and reduce obesity [2,3]. Gluten free nutriwafer is known to have many health benefits, and have been accepted by the public as balanced wafer formulation with a high content of antioxidants. The purpose of gluten free nutrient wafer is to provide people vitamins, energy etc. [4]. One good feature of nutri-wafer is that they can be conveniently eaten anytime before, during, or after an activity. The daily snack Nutri-wafer are easy to carry and readily available. The high demand for gluten-free nutri-wafers can satisfy the nutritional requirements of chronic celiac individuals also. It is rich in minerals and the Gluten-free products are also digested easily. It act as therapeutic agents for people with stomach ulcers and frequent problem of acidity. It is rich in fiber and prevents constipation helping to promote healthy gut [1]. Millet is a good protein source for vegetarians, cannot get the needed protein from meat and fish or meat products. This is where pearl millets can take the role to compensate, [2,3]. Further, Gluten free nutri-wafer is known to have many health benefits, and have better acceptability in the public as a gluten-free free nutritionally balanced product [4]. The purpose of gluten free nutrient wafer is to provide people energy, enough micronutrients and prebiotic fiber [5]. Gluten-free cereals also have lesser fat content [6]. Several studies have shown that obesity and weight gain are common problems among those who consume food with a lower net protein content, including those with celiac disease [7]. Gluten-containing products are sometimes detrimental for people who have celiac disease or non celiac gluten sensitivity [8,9]. Thus, the objective of the current work is to develop a gluten-free nutritient rich wafer formulation with a high fiber content.
