Chia Seeds

Chia seeds, derived from the Mayan word for "strength," are revered as a superfood for their impressive nutritional profile and versatility. Despite their tiny size, they pack a powerful punch, rich in omega-3 fatty acids, fiber, protein, and essential minerals, while remaining low in calories.

These seeds are naturally hydrating and form a gel-like consistency when soaked, making them ideal for puddings, smoothies, cereal, or as a thickener in sauces and dressings. They're also commonly used as an egg replacement in vegan baking thanks to their ability to absorb up to 12 times their weight in liquid.

Key Benefits:

• High in Omega-3s: Supports heart, brain, and joint health.

• Fiber-Rich: Promotes digestive health and satiety.

• Complete Plant Protein: Contains all essential amino acids.

• Hydrating & Versatile: Absorbs water to form a gel for culinary and hydration benefits.

Suggested Use:

• Mix into smoothies, cereal, yogurt, or juices.

• Use as a thickener in sauces, soups, or jams.

• Make chia pudding or use as an egg substitute in baking (1 tbsp chia + 3 tbsp water = 1 egg).

• Sprinkle over salads or add to baked goods.

How to Soak:
Use a 1:10 ratio of chia to water.
Mix about 1.5 tablespoons of chia seeds with 1 cup of water.
Let sit for 30 minutes to 2 hours until fully gelled. Stir to prevent clumping.

Recommended Intake:
Up to 3 tablespoons daily
