Description
Chia seeds (Salvia hispanica) originated in South America and were a staple in the diets of ancient Mayans and Aztecs. They are extremely high in Omega 3 and are loaded with antioxidants, vitamins, minerals, and fiber. They can be eaten right out of the bag, sprinkled on hot cereal and used in baking, for a nutritional boost comparable only to flaxseed in Omega 3 and dietary fiber content.
