Chia Seeds Black Organic

Origin

The chia plant originates from South and Central America where it was first cultivated more than 4,000 years ago. The Aztecs, Mayans and other indigenous American tribes made great use of this important crop.

The composition of chia seed makes it an ideal source of slow-release energy with more protein and omega-3 fatty acids than any other plant-based food. Alpha-linolenic acid, an omega-3 fatty acid. Chia seeds also contain antioxidants and several minerals.

Chia seeds are surrounded by soluble fibre and can absorb up to 7 times their own weight in water, forming a mucilaginous gel. This may explain how chia can satiate the appetite for so long, as the seeds swell in size to fill the stomach. Chia seeds also contain protein, minerals, iron, potassium, calcium and magnesium.
