Choose your pack

Select the weight to see its current price and availability. This product has pack-size options only; no separate Powder form is listed. Mota is the existing trade distinction, not a measured seed-size specification or purity certificate. The separate Barikh Tukmaria listing has its own options and stock.

Sabja, Chia and Tulsi seeds

Sabja here is listed as sweet basil seed. It should not be treated as interchangeable with Chia seed or holy basil/Tulsi seed. Match the actual botanical identity and plant part to your recipe or preparation; similar appearance or the word basil alone is insufficient.

Culinary context and preparation

Sweet basil seeds appear in food preparations such as drinks and desserts; FSSAI's Nature's Sweetness recipe resource uses pre-soaked sweet basil/Sabja seeds. This general context does not certify the supplied batch as food grade. Confirm the pack's intended use and food-grade suitability before eating. If appropriate for your batch, follow the label or recipe's pre-soaking instructions; do not swallow a spoonful of dry seeds. No universal medicinal dose, weight-loss result or fertility claim is made.

Ask a qualified healthcare professional about medicinal use, pregnancy, breastfeeding, children's use or swallowing difficulty. This raw ingredient is not a replacement for prescribed care.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are Sabja seeds called in English?

Sabja / Tukmaria seeds are described here as basil seeds or sweet basil seeds, with Ocimum basilicum as the listed botanical reference. This page is the Mota trade listing.

Are Sabja and Chia seeds the same?

No. They are different seed products and should not be assumed interchangeable. Check the botanical identity, actual recipe and supplied material.

Are these Tulsi seeds or basil leaves?

This listing is for seeds attributed to sweet basil, Ocimum basilicum. It is not a Tulsi/holy basil seed listing and does not supply basil leaves.

How do I eat or use Sabja seeds?

First confirm the supplied pack is suitable for culinary use. Then follow its instructions and your recipe, including pre-soaking. Do not swallow dry seeds by the spoonful; no medicinal dose is provided.

Which sizes are available, and what is the Sabja seed price?

Choose 100 g, 200 g, 400 g or 900 g. Select the weight for current price and availability. This Mota listing has no separate Powder form option.

What is the difference between Mota and Barikh Tukmaria?

These are separate catalog trade listings. Mota identifies this listing; it is not a measured grade certificate. Ask the store which supplied material suits your intended preparation rather than assuming the listings are identical.

This pack makes no guaranteed weight-loss or treatment claim. Match food use to a suitable batch and seek qualified guidance for medicinal use, pregnancy, breastfeeding or a medical condition.
