Touham Malanga( Basil Seeds) nutrition facts

1. Good Source of Minerals

Based on U.S. product nutrition labels, 1 tablespoon (13 grams or 0.5 ounces) of basil seeds supplies 15% of the Reference Daily Intake (RDI) for calcium and 10% of the RDI for magnesium and iron.

Calcium and magnesium are essential for your bone health and muscle function, while iron is vital for red blood cell production (1Trusted Source).

Many people don’t get enough calcium and magnesium through their diet. Eating basil seeds could help you reach your daily needs of these nutrients.

Additionally, basil seeds could be an important source of iron and calcium for people who don’t eat meat or dairy products.

2.Packed with Fiber

Basil seeds are high in fiber, particularly soluble fiber, including pectin (3Trusted Source4Trusted Source).

Here are some ways the fiber in basil seeds may benefit your health:

  1. Helps you meet your fiber quota. Just 1 tablespoon (13 grams or 0.5 ounces) of basil seeds supplies 7 grams of fiber — 25% of the RDI. Only about 5% of Americans eat enough fiber (5Trusted Source6Trusted Source).
  2. May support gut health. Test-tube studies suggest that pectin has prebiotic benefits, meaning it may nourish and increase beneficial gut bacteria. This may include anti-inflammatory bacteria that support gut health (7Trusted Source8Trusted Source9Trusted Source).
  3. May help you feel full. Pectin may delay stomach emptying and increase hormone levels that promote a sense of fullness. Still, it’s uncertain whether eating basil seeds to curb appetite is an effective weight loss strategy (4Trusted Source10Trusted Source).
  4. May aid blood sugar control. When people with type 2 diabetes ate 10 grams (3/4 tablespoon) of basil seeds in water after each meal for a month, their post-meal blood sugar was 17% lower than at the start of the study (11Trusted Source).
  5. May improve cholesterol. Pectin may lower blood cholesterol by inhibiting cholesterol absorption in your gut. People who ate 30 grams (7 teaspoons) of basil seeds daily for one month had an 8% drop in total cholesterol (4Trusted Source7Trusted Source).

Due to a lack of recent scientific research on basil seeds, more studies are needed to confirm these health benefits.
