Pure Dry Chunna (Limestone Powder) - 100% Edible Grade for Paan & Calcium Support

Swadeshi Mandir Dry Chunna is a high-purity Limestone powder. Unlike industrial-grade lime used in construction, our Chunnam is filtered multiple times to ensure it is free from silica, heavy metals, and grit, making it safe for traditional dietary uses.

Proven Health Benefits of Edible Chunna

In Ayurveda and traditional Indian wellness, Chunna is more than just a Paan ingredient - it is a vital mineral source. Modern science confirms its role in several physiological functions:

• Bioavailable Calcium Supplement: An excellent natural source of calcium for strengthening bone density and supporting Osteoporosis prevention.
• Natural Digestive Aid: Its alkaline properties help neutralise excess stomach acid, providing relief from GERD and Acid Reflux.
• Bone & Joint Support: Traditionally used to alleviate pain in knees, back, and shoulders by improving mineral absorption.

How to Use Dry Chunna Safely

Because this is a pure dry powder, it is highly concentrated. Always follow the "Wheat Grain Rule":

1. Hydration: Mix a small amount of powder with water drop-by-drop to create a smooth, creamy paste.
2. Dosage: Consume no more than a wheat-grain-sized amount per day.
3. Carrier: For maximum absorption, mix the hydrated paste into a glass of buttermilk (chaas), pulses (daal), or a cup of yoghurt (curd).

Safety Note: Do not consume in dry form. Avoid use if you have a history of kidney stones (calcium oxalate stones).
