Sabja Seeds 100gm
Sabja seeds, or Sweet Basil seeds, have been a cornerstone of Ayurvedic wellness for centuries, primarily valued for their profound "Sheeta" (cooling) properties. Unlike chia seeds which are often imported, Sabja is native to the Indian subcontinent and is biologically optimized for our tropical climate. These seeds are powerhouses of Alpha-Linolenic Acid (ALA) and act as a natural internal thermoregulator, helping the body manage heat stress while providing a significant boost to metabolic health.

💡 How to Prepare / Use (Step-by-Step)
Prep: Sabja seeds should never be consumed dry as they can be a choking hazard. Soak 1–2 teaspoons of seeds in a cup of lukewarm or room-temperature water for about 15 minutes. You will see them swell and develop a translucent white film.
Cook/Method: No cooking is required! Once the seeds have fully bloomed and doubled in size, they are ready to use. If you are in a rush, using slightly warm water will speed up the hydration process to under 5 minutes.
Serve/Enjoy: Stir the soaked seeds into traditional beverages like Nannari Sarbath, lemonade, or rose milk for a refreshing coolant. They are also excellent when added to faloodas, yogurt, smoothies, or even mixed into a simple bowl of curd rice to aid digestion.
