Rain and corn have a special connection. Be it sweet corn or desi bhutta, both have their distinct taste and nutritional value. But when it comes to their impact on one's health, one variety is found to be better than the other. 

Bhutta or sweet corn; which is better? 

Recently, nutritionist Munmum Ganeriwal shared a post on social media differentiating between the nutritional values of sweet corn and desi bhutta. 

In her post, she mentioned that sweet corn is grown from imported hybrid seeds that need a lot of resources to grow and its nutrient density is also compromised while being high in sugar. Also, one cannot overlook the high sugar content that it has along with the most negligible fibre content. 

Whereas, indigenous corn (desi bhutta) comes in 3000 varieties that need minimal resources of water and manure. The fibre content in desi corn also controls blood sugar and keeps the digestive tract in good condition.
