Organic Raw Chia Seeds

About this product

Chia seeds were an essential part of Aztecs and Mayan diet. In fact, 'chia' is the Mayan word for 'strength.' The seeds are exceptionally nutrient dense, with a significant concentration of fibre, proteins, minerals, vitamins, anti-oxidants & omega-3. They absorb several times their volume in liquid forming a gel, which keeps you full longer. Considering their nutritional properties, they are rightly reclaiming their place in the modern world. The seeds have an excellent amount of the omega-3 fatty acid ALA, which contributes to the maintenance of normal blood cholesterol levels. The beneficial effect is obtained with a daily intake of 2 g of ALA.
