The video discusses Raj Gira, also known as Amaranth or Ramdana, clarifying that it is not a grain, which explains why it's often consumed during fasting periods. It highlights Raj Gira's impressive nutritional profile, noting that 100 grams contain approximately 340 mg of calcium. Furthermore, it emphasizes that Raj Gira is a rare vegetarian source that provides all nine essential amino acids. The speaker points out the irony that while quinoa is widely recognized in India as a complete protein source, Raj Gira, which is nutritionally superior in terms of protein and iron content when compared to quinoa, is less discussed. A practical and delicious way to incorporate Raj Gira into the diet is suggested: Raj Gira Halva, which can be prepared similarly to traditional Artek Halva. The video also reveals that 'Lal Sag' (also called Cholai) are the leaves of the Raj Gira plant, and viewers are encouraged to consume them when available in the market.

Raj gira, which is also known as amaran or ramd dana, is not really a grain, which is why you might have eaten it on a fast.

You will be amazed that 100 grams of raj gira has around 340 mg of calcium. But why just calcium? Raj giraa is one of those rare vegetarian sources which has all the nine essential amino acids present in it.

But the irony is that today Indians talk more about quinoa as a complete source of protein than rajira. But when compared with quinoa, Raj giraa was found to be a clear winner in terms of its protein and iron content.

Raj gira halva is a calcium-rich dessert idea which can be made like normal artek halva. In my opinion, it's not just the most practical way to include raja in your diet but is also extremely delicious.

Interestingly, lal sag, which is also called cholai, are the leaves of these raja seeds. So whenever you see this lal sag in subzi mandi, do eat it.
