Chia Seeds

Chia Seeds are high in quality protein - in fact by weight, they contain ~14% protein. They are also loaded with antioxidants and are very high in fibre. Chia seeds are incredibly easy to incorporate into diets. The seeds themselves are bland, so one can add them to pretty much anything.

Benefits:

• High in Fiber - Chia seeds are high in fibre content, which breaks down slowly in the body. This helps control appetite as it gives you a full stomach feeling for a longer time.
• Good Heart Health - Chia Seeds are a rich source of Omega-3. This helps decrease the risk for thrombosis and arrhythmias that may lead to heart attack, stroke, and sudden cardiac death.
• Improves Bone Health - Chia Seeds consist of minerals like magnesium, iron, potassium, phosphorus, and calcium which play an important role in improving bone mineral density.
