What to know about True Story Organic Bajra Flour

One-ingredient bajra flour with little declared beyond energy

True Story Organic Bajra Flour is a 500 g pack of flour with one ingredient on the label: organic bajra flour, with no percentage given because nothing else is in it. It is certified organic under NPOP standards by Ecocert India, and it is bought by people who want a millet flour for rotis, bhakri and baking.

Per 100 g you get 371 kcal, 12 g protein, 73.1 g carbohydrate and 3.4 g fat, of which 0.4 g is saturated. Total sugar is 1.1 g with none added, and sodium is 16.3 mg. The pack prints a serve of 100 g, so one serve has the same numbers, and the 500 g bag holds five. No fibre, vitamins or minerals are declared.

The name is plain and the list backs it up. The front also carries health lines such as Helps Manage Diabetes and Lowers Cholesterol, and the panel gives no numbers that support them. CleanPlate scores it EA2.

A 500 g bag holds five 100 g servings of a flour with nothing in the list but bajra. There are no additives, no added sugar and almost no sodium, so what you cook with it is what decides the meal.

It is a staple grain, and it fits into everyday cooking: rotis, bhakri or a thick porridge. Its calories are those of any flour at 371 kcal per 100 g, so the portion on the plate matters more than the flour itself. The grade for nutrition is low because the panel declares so little, not because anything in it is a concern.

Treat the front-of-pack health lines as marketing. Flour does not manage diabetes or lower cholesterol on its own, and the carbohydrate is 73.1 g per 100 g. Pair it with vegetables, dal or curd, and no swap is needed: the macros are in line with other flours, and the real difference is the clean list.

Why True Story Organic Bajra Flour scores EA2

Nutrition is an E because the panel declares only 12 g protein and 73.1 g carbohydrate per 100 g, with no fibre or minerals. Ingredients are an A with one item, and risk is a 2, set by energy alone.

How we score →

01 Nutrition densityA to E

Very low nutrient density

Protein: 12 g
Fibre: Not declared
Vitamins and minerals: None declared
Energy: 371 kcal

01 Nutrition density: why E

Protein is 12 g per 100 g and carbohydrate is 73.1 g, with 3.4 g fat. That is the whole of what the panel declares, so the grade rests on protein alone.

No fibre, vitamins or minerals are declared, and nothing is fortified. With so little to credit, the nutrition grade stays low even though the flour is a whole, single ingredient.

Scored on protein, fibre and twelve vitamins and minerals, against the Codex and FSSAI "source" and "high" levels, per 100 g and per 100 kcal. Protein also has to supply at least 12.5% of the calories to count, and 25% for full credit.

02 Ingredient integrityA to E

Clean, minimally processed

Base: Organic Bajra Flour
Sweeteners: None added
Additives: 0
Flagged: None

02 Ingredient integrity: why A

The list is one item, organic bajra flour. There are no additives, no sweetener, no flavouring and no hydrogenated fat, so nothing costs ingredient points.

No claim on the pack is contradicted by the list, and the organic certification is stated, so the label earns full marks here.

Scored on how processed the ingredients are, which additives are used and why, and whether the label keeps its promises.

03 Load risk1 to 5

Low risk

Added sugar: 0 g
Sodium: 16.3 mg
Saturated fat: 0.4 g
Trans fat: 0 g

03 Load risk: why 2

Energy is the only real driver: 371 kcal per 100 g. Sugar is 0 g, saturated fat is 0.4 g, trans fat is 0 g and sodium is 16.3 mg, so each of those adds almost nothing.

The risk grade is a 2, and it is set by the energy floor rather than by salt, sugar or fat.

Scored on free sugar, sodium, saturated fat and trans fat, each weighed by how strong the evidence of harm is.

Red flags

No major red flags on the label.

Green flags
