Chia Seeds (Salvia Hispanica) I Organic
Chia seeds have long been regarded as a superfood. This plant, which is endemic to Mexico and Guatemala, had enormous nutritional and economic value in ancient times.
It has become a popular snack among herbalists and nutritionists due to its high vitamin content. The Mayan word "chia" signifies "strong."
They are high in niacin, boron, zinc, iron, magnesium, manganese, calcium, and phosphorus, as well as all of the necessary amino acids, vitamins B, D, and E, protein, fiber, and omega-3 fatty acids. This is appropriately referred to as a superfood since it has more nutrients than any other plant.
Chia seeds promote rapid muscular tissue regeneration and have a high energy-to-weight ratio, making them extremely beneficial for athletes. The seeds also aid in weight loss by making one feel full without causing the body to lose important nutrients.
They've been shown to promote healthy skin, reduce signs of aging, improve the digestive system, and strengthen bones.
Because of their ability to absorb water in the gastrointestinal tract and create a gel-like material, chia seeds can help nourish the blood and improve digestive regularity.
They can also help with inflammation, kidney function, and proper hydration.
