Black and White Chia Seeds
The Chia seed (Salvia hispanica) is the highest known plant source of anti-inflammatory Omega-3 (8 times higher than Salmon), and unlike other sources of this important fatty acid, eg, flaxseed, hemp or fish, it is highly stable due to its powerfully naturally occurring anti-oxidants.
Both Black and white chia seeds are combined to maximise the nutritional benefits of each.
Chia is packed full of the following nutrients.
- 8 x more Omega-3 EFA's than salmon
- 7 x more Vitamin C than oranges
- 6 x more fibre than oat bran (soluble and insoluble fibre for bowel, cholesterol and blood sugar regulation.
- 5 x more calcium than milk
- 4 x higher ORAC value than blueberries
- 3 x more iron than spinach
- 2 x more potassium than bananas
- 15 x more magnesium than broccoli
- 18 amino acids
- Vitamin A and B12
- complete protein (23%)
All adds up to 100% healthy nutrition.
