Chia Seeds Organic 500 g

Organic chia seeds

Chia seeds are the edible seeds of the plant Salvia hispanica, which is also known in Slovenian as oil sage. They originate from Central and South America, and were consumed by ancient warriors to boost their energy in battle. They were already known to the Maya and Aztecs, who regularly included them in their diet, as they were convinced that they provided strength, energy and stamina.

Chia seeds are particularly rich in:

💚 omega-3 fatty acids,
💚 protein,
💚 carbohydrates,
💚 minerals such as iron, magnesium, potassium and calcium,
💚 dietary fibre,
💚 antioxidants.

Our chia seeds come from organic farming.

Why are chia seeds good for you?

As well as being rich in omega-3 fatty acids – which are essential for humans but cannot be produced by the body – the seeds are rich in vitamins, minerals, protein and dietary fibre. Just 20 g of chia seeds a day provides almost 30 per cent of your daily dietary fibre requirement. They absorb water, thereby slowing down digestion in the stomach.
