Chia Seeds

Chia seeds may be small, but they’re incredibly rich in nutrients. A staple in the ancient Aztec and Maya diets, these seeds have been touted for their health benefits for centuries.

Due to their remarkable concentration of omega-3 fats, fiber, magnesium, calcium, and antioxidants, chia seeds are frequently referred to be a superfood. Chia seeds are healthy, but they may also be expensive. Fortunately, chia seeds purchased in larger numbers typically cost less than chia seeds purchased in smaller amounts. Furthermore, when kept in a cold, dark place, chia seeds have a lengthy shelf life of about 18 months. Chia seeds are quite simple to include in your diet. Because they have a relatively bland flavor, you may add them to almost anything. They are a convenient addition to recipes because they don't require grinding, cooking, or any other kind of preparation. They can be consumed raw, dipped in juice, or added to baked goods like muffins, oatmeal, pudding, and smoothies.
