Description

Organic chia seeds are a rich plant-based source of fatty acids and naturally contain antioxidants.

Thanks to their neutral flavor, they can be added to a wide variety of sweet and savory preparations without altering the taste.

They are available as a raw ingredient for use in nutritional and dietary supplements.

In the Mayan language, “chia” means strength. For centuries, these tiny seeds were used by the indigenous peoples of Southwestern America and Mexico as a staple food. Among the ancient Aztecs, chia seeds—also known as “the food of runners”—were consumed as a source of sustained energy.

Use: Add organic chia seeds to salads, cereals, yogurt, soups, bread, desserts, juices, smoothies, and more.

When mixed with water, chia seeds form a gel that can be used as a natural thickening agent in cooking and baking, and as an alternative to oil in baking recipes.
