Essential Nutrition
Chia is rich in omega-3, an essential fatty acid derived from plat sources. Heart Foundations around the world recommend an intake of at least 2g of omega-3 every day.
Chia contains the perfect ratio of both soluble and insoluble fibre. Soluble fibre forms a gel in water, while insoluble fibre remains close to its original form throughout the digestive path. Both types of fibre and vital for healthy digestion.
Chia contains eight essential amino acids, making it a complete protein. Complete proteins from plat sources are very rare, making chia a fantastic source of nutrition for vegan and vegetarian diets.
Chia is one of the highest known sources of antioxidants, which are vital in the maintenance of healthy cells. Antioxidants combat the oxidation process caused by sun exposure or pollution, carrying free radicals out of the body.
Tip: Chia "eggs" are a very good alternative if vegan or allergic/intolerant to egg in cooking/baking.
Add to yoghurt, smoothies, salads, granola, baking... the options are endless!
