According to Khushi, haleem seeds are one of the richest plant-based sources of iron and can help improve both iron and haemoglobin levels. She explains, “Are you vegetarian or struggling with low iron levels? These seeds are one of the richest plant-based sources of iron! Packed with both iron and folate, they are amazing for naturally improving your haemoglobin levels within a week.”

The nutritionist adds that these seeds are also rich in essential amino acids and protein, which help strengthen the hair and reduce hair fall. She elaborates, “Tired of seeing hair on your comb? Hair fall can often be linked to nutrient deficiencies. Haleem seeds are packed with the essential amino acids and protein your hair needs to grow stronger and reduce shedding.”

Khushi points out that haleem seeds are also packed with calcium, a vital mineral that plays a key role in maintaining strong and healthy bones. She explains, “They are also loaded with calcium, making them fantastic for supporting your bone health.”
