Finger Millet/ Ragi for High Protein content.
Ragi has very high protein content which is of the order found in rice. Few varieties of Ragi even contain double the protein found in rice.

Also, the study found that diet based on whole finger millet has lower glycemic response i.e. lower ability to increase blood sugar level.
