Powerful Gut Scrubber Mimosa pudica seeds are mucilaginous, meaning they swell when they come into contact with a liquid and form a gel. If you?ve ever soaked chia seeds in water, you?ve seen this type of swelling in action. When you ingest Mimosa pudica seeds such as in powdered form in capsules a similar swelling happens in your digestive tract. The seeds become a sticky gel that can latch onto intestinal build-up, parasites, and harmful bacteria.
