1. Grains
Buy as much of these grains as possible. In Malaysia, that should be easy as grains are the staple of Indian cuisine. Whole grains have plenty of health benefits and are packed with nutrients like protein, fibre, B vitamins, antioxidants, and trace minerals (iron, zinc, copper, and magnesium). They are a good source of carbohydrates that provide us with energy.
Whole grains also prevent escalation of blood sugar level (diabetes is a co-morbidity of COVID-19). So yes, do stock up on the following:
Rice
Wheat
Millets
Broken Wheat or Dahlia
Barley
Buckwheat
Pearl sago or sabudana
