I'm really trying to watch my weight and I've heard that roti can be pretty high in calories and carbs. But as Indians, it's hard to skip it altogetherlike, having fewer than 24 roti in a meal just doesn't feel satisfying. How can I break this habit? And is switching to bread a better option for weight loss?

Question

I've been having sabja seeds water now and then to help with heat, urinary infections, and keeping my stomach clean. I'm curious if it's okay to just drink the water straight without chewing the seeds. Like, does my body really absorb it that way? Will it still work and give the benefits if I don't chew the seeds?
