What are Chia Seeds?

Chia seeds, hailing from the Salvia hispanica plant, are tiny nutritional powerhouses. Native to Mexico and Guatemala, these ancient seeds were a staple food for civilizations like the Aztecs and Mayans. Incredibly versatile, they can be added to a variety of dishes, from smoothies and yogurt to salads and baked goods. Packed with essential nutrients such as fiber, omega-3 fatty acids, protein, and antioxidants, chia seeds also have the unique ability to absorb up to 12 times their weight in liquid, forming a gel-like substance that aids digestion and promotes satiety.
