Traditional Kongu Heritage · Science-Validated
"The ancient seed of strength, now in every grain of rice."
In the kitchens of Kongu Nadu, Black Sesame — Ellu — has always been more than a spice. It was the grandmother's quiet remedy: a handful stirred into rice for the child who wouldn't eat, a daily ritual for growing girls, a source of deep nourishment that modern science is only beginning to fully understand. Ayuvra has taken this time-honoured tradition and transformed it into a bold, spicy, impossibly aromatic rice mix — one so flavourful, even fussy eaters ask for seconds.

The science behind it
🌸 Sesamin & Uterine Health
Black sesame contains powerful lignans — Sesamin and Sesamolin — that act as phytoestrogens, helping regulate hormonal balance and supporting healthy uterine lining development in growing girls.
🦴 Skeletal Mineralisation
Sesame is a powerhouse of highly bioavailable Calcium and Zinc, supporting bone density and skeletal strength during the rapid growth spurts of childhood and adolescence.
⚡ Healthy Caloric Density
With nearly 30g of healthy fats per 100g, this mix delivers the dense caloric intake needed for underweight children to gain healthy mass while supporting brain development through Omega-6 fatty acids.
