Chia was cultivated by the ancient Aztecs, and was honored as a "power food". Chia is one of the best plant sources of beneficial Omega-3 oils, especially a-linolenic acid (ALA). Chia is often stored for long periods of time as a Survival Food, since it does not quickly turn rancid like other sources of Essential Fatty Acids. Chia is an excellent source of fiber. When Chia is mixed into a liquid, it form a thick mass due to its high content of mucilages. Nature's Answer Chia Seed is produced using totally natural growing techniques, which have been used since antiquity. Chia sees are 100% vegetarian, Non-GMO and are produced without the use of pesticides.
Suggested Use
Mix one (1) scoop (15 g) of Chia seeds into 8 oz. of liquid. Shake or stir briskly for one minute to evenly suspend the seeds. Let mixture settle for 5 minutes to allow seeds to soften. Follow with an additional 8 oz. of clear liquid. Chia can be liberally sprinkled on all kinds of foods to enhance their nutritional benefits. Try Chia in yogurt, oatmeal, salads, gravy, pudding or in any of your favorite recipes!
