WHITE CHIA RAW SEEDS ORGANIC

Properties

Organic White Chia Seeds are obtained from Salvia hispanica, a plant cultivated by the Aztecs over 4,000 years ago in central and southern Mexico. Then as now, the plant was valued for its health-promoting properties and many uses. The name 'chia', which comes from the Aztec word for 'fat', reflects the fact that chia seeds are a natural source of alpha-linolenic acid (ALA) (up to 25%), an essential omega-3 fatty acid. The presence of soluble fibre means that the seeds can absorb seven times their own weight in water.

Preparation method

Organic White Chia Seeds can be added to bread or cakes, to muesli for breakfast, and to vegetable salads for lunch. Alternatively, you can add them to smoothies or shakes in combination with fruit (juice) or another superfood, milk, yogurt or even water. When soaked in water, these seeds form a gelatinous substance, which can be used as a base for various culinary recipes.
